Contribution of HCN1 variant to sinus bradycardia: A case report.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Missense mutations in the hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-modulated (HCN) channel 4 (HCN4) are one of the genetic causes of cardiac sinus bradycardia.

Objective

To investigate possible HCN4 channel mutation in a young patient with profound sinus bradycardia.

Methods

Direct sequencing of HCN4 and whole-exome sequencing were performed on DNA samples from the indexed patient (P), the patient's son (PS), and a family unrelated healthy long-distance running volunteer (V). Resting heart rate was 31 bpm for P, 67 bpm for PS, and 50 bpm for V. Immunoblots, flow cytometry, and immunocytofluorescence confocal imaging were used to study cellular distribution of channel variants. Patch-clamp electrophysiology was used to investigate the properties of mutant HCN1 channels.

Results

In P no missense mutations were found in the HCN4 gene; instead, we found two heterozygous variants in the HCN1 gene: deletion of an N-terminal glycine triplet (⁷²GGG⁷⁴, "N-del") and a novel missense variant, P851A, in the C-terminal region. N-del variant was found before and shared by PS. These two variations were not found in V. Compared to wild type, N-del and P851A reduced cell surface expression and negatively shifted voltage-activation with slower activation kinetics.

Conclusion

Decreased channel activity HCN1 mutant channel makes it unable to contribute to early depolarization of sinus node action potential, thus likely a main cause of the profound sinus bradycardia in this patient.

Unusual Association of Diamond-Blackfan Anemia and Severe Sinus Bradycardia in a Six-Month-Old White Infant: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:Diamond-Blackfan anemia is a rare (6-7 million live births), inherited condition manifesting as severe anemia due to the impaired bone marrow production of red blood cells. We present the unusual case of a six month old infant with a de novo mutation of the RPS19 gene causing Diamond-Blackfan anemia who additionally suffers from severe sinus bradycardia. The infant was diagnosed with this condition at the age of four months; at the age of 6 months, she presents with severe anemia causing hypoxia which, in turn, caused severe dyspnea and polypnea, which had mixed causes (hypoxic and infectious) as the child was febrile. After correction of the overlapping diarrhea, metabolic acidosis, and severe anemia (hemoglobin < 3 g/dL), she developed severe persistent sinus bradycardia immediately after mild sedation (before central venous catheter insertion), not attributable to any of the more frequent causes, with a heart rate as low as 49 beats/min on 24 h Holter monitoring, less than the first percentile for age, but with a regular QT interval and no arrhythmia. The echocardiogram was unremarkable, showing a small interatrial communication (patent foramen ovale with left-to-right shunting), mild left ventricular hypertrophy, normal systolic and diastolic function, and mild tricuspid regurgitation. After red cell transfusion and appropriate antibiotic and supportive treatment, the child's general condition improved dramatically but the sinus bradycardia persisted. We consider this a case of well-tolerated sinus bradycardia and foresee a good cardiologic prognosis, while the hematologic prognosis remains determined by future corticoid response, treatment-related complications and risk of leukemia.

Severe Bradycardia Associated with the Use of Terlipressin: A Case Report.

Project description:IntroductionAlthough terlipressin is known to cause bradycardia, this adverse effect is usually described in association with hypertension and is considered a benign compensatory response mediated by arterial baroreceptors. Cardiac monitoring for patients receiving terlipressin is not routinely recommended.Case presentationA 77-year-old female patient with no history of coronary artery disease and no other coexisting risk factors for cardiac arrhythmias or conduction disturbances was admitted to intensive care unit with severe cholangitis, complicated by variceal bleeding. She developed severe sinus bradycardia following the use of terlipressin, which was associated with significant hypotension that required the infusion of norepinephrine. The bradycardia occurred again when terlipressin therapy was reattempted.ConclusionVasopressin is known to sensitize baroreceptor reflexes by a central mechanism though its actions on V1a receptors in the area postrema, and we speculate that vasopressin analogues such as terlipressin may act in the same manner. That this effect is not widely described in terlipressin safety literature may be due to the overall younger age range of the trial population. This raises the possibility that cardiac monitoring may be warranted for elderly patients receiving terlipressin.

Long QT Syndrome and Sinus Bradycardia-A Mini Review.

Project description:Congenital long-QT syndrome (LQTS) is an inherited cardiac disorder characterized by the prolongation of ventricular repolarization, susceptibility to Torsades de Pointes (TdP), and a risk for sudden death. Various types of congenital LQTS exist, all due to specific defects in ion channel-related genes. Interestingly, almost all of the ion channels affected by the various types of LQTS gene mutations are also expressed in the human sinoatrial node (SAN). It is therefore not surprising that LQTS is frequently associated with a change in basal heart rate (HR). However, current data on how the LQTS-associated ion channel defects result in impaired human SAN pacemaker activity are limited. In this mini-review, we provide an overview of known LQTS mutations with effects on HR and the underlying changes in expression and kinetics of ion channels. Sinus bradycardia has been reported in relation to a large number of LQTS mutations. However, the occurrence of both QT prolongation and sinus bradycardia on a family basis is almost completely limited to LQTS types 3 and 4 (LQT3 and Ankyrin-B syndrome, respectively). Furthermore, a clear causative role of this sinus bradycardia in cardiac events seems reserved to mutations underlying LQT3.

Case report: Robotic repair of unroofed coronary sinus

Project description:Unroofed coronary sinus is a rare congenital heart disease caused by the partial or complete absence of the common wall between the coronary sinus and left atrium. When indicated for repair, it is done either percutaneously or surgically. Repair using a totally endoscopic robotic procedure is rarely performed nor reported in the literature. We report a case of a 47-year-old male who underwent a successful totally endoscopic robotic repair of this anomaly.

Cerebral Sinus Vein Thrombosis following Sneezing: Case Report.

Project description:Cerebral sinus vein thrombosis (CVT) is a relatively rare neurovascular entity, usually associated with acquired or genetic hypercoagulable states, and in many cases it remains idiopathic. Trauma is also associated with CVT among patients with major head or neck trauma, including penetrating injuries. However, CVT associated with acceleration trauma has only been described in few cases so far. We present an unusual case of a 19-year-old woman with no past medical history, admitted with an extensive CVT following sneezing. A thorough investigation did not reveal any other potential etiology or risk factor other than estrogen-containing oral contraceptives. The patient was treated with anticoagulation and improved clinically with complete recanalization on follow-up imaging. This case suggests acceleration trauma may be a potential factor of risk for CVT.

An unusual case of dilated coronary sinus: case report and clinical implications.

Project description:BackgroundThe presence of a dilated coronary sinus (CS) assessed by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is highly suggestive of inferior or superior vena cava (SVC) anomalies, in the absence of a shunt. The most frequent finding is the persistence of a left superior vena cava (LSVC): well-known feature to electrophysiologists. Abnormal inferior vena cava (IVC) drainage is another cause of CS dilatation.Case summaryAn 83-year-old woman presented with heart failure symptoms, atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular rate, and a dilated CS assessed by TTE. Atrioventricular (AV) node ablation was considered given the poor efficacy of a rate control strategy. Cardiac computed tomography (CT) revealed a double SVC with an LSVC draining directly into the dilated CS. Single-lead pacemaker implantation was performed using a right-sided vascular access with no technical difficulties. An aborted AV node ablation procedure was due to the impossibility of getting to the right atrium. Fluoroscopy and CT imaging at second look analysis confirmed the diagnosis of an abnormal IVC with an agenesia of its supra-hepatic segment directly drained into the CS.DiscussionOur clinical case illustrates an unusual and rare double venous abnormality: both LSVC and IVC directly drained into the CS and were responsible for its massive dilatation.

Trans-coronary pacing via Rota wire prevents bradycardia during rotational atherectomy: a case report.

Project description:Back groundRotational atherectomy (RA) is used for plaque modification in patients with heavily calcified coronary lesions. Rotational atherectomy can induce significant bradycardia or atrioventricular block requiring for temporary pacemaker insertion. In this report, we present a case of trans-coronary pacing via a Rota wire to prevent bradycardia during RA in the proximal right coronary artery (RCA).Case summaryA 72-year-old woman with a 1 month history of worsening effort angina was admitted to our hospital. Computed tomography coronary angiography disclosed significant coronary stenosis with severe calcification in proximal RCA. Coronary angiography revealed significant coronary stenosis with severe calcification in the proximal RCA. Subsequently, percutaneous coronary artery intervention was performed under the guidance of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). The pull-back IVUS showed a circumferential calcified lesion in the proximal RCA that was treated using RA, which induced significant bradycardia requiring temporary pacemaker insertion. Immediately, trans-coronary pacing was provided via a Rota wire placed in the far distal RCA; this was used for back-up pacing during RA. Rotational atherectomy was completed by safely modifying the calcified lesion. After successful debulking of the calcified lesion, we dilated with a balloon, and a drug-eluting stent was implanted at the proximal RCA. Final IVUS and angiography showed good stent apposition and expansion. We did not observe any serious intraprocedural complications.DiscussionRotational atherectomy is used for plaque modification in patients with heavily calcified coronary lesions. Rotational atherectomy can induce significant bradycardia or atrioventricular block requiring for temporary pacemaker insertion via the transvenous route. This method could be an effective method to prevent bradycardia during RA.

Silent sinus syndrome (First Case Report, Saudi Arabia with recommendation).

Project description:IntroductionSilent sinus syndrome is a rare disorder that presents a diagnostic challenge, most of the patients with this syndrome present with ophthalmological complaints without any nasal sinus symptoms, and it has a painless course and slow development. The syndrome can be diagnosed clinically and confirmed radiologically, and CT imaging is considered the gold standard for its diagnosis. The classical radiographic findings are opacification and collapse of the sinus walls. Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is the standard gold treatment of choice to arrest the progression of the disease.Presentation of caseA case report of a 37-years-old-female who was complaining of severe throbbing pain since 2009, is presented here where the diagnosis of SSS was obtained in 2018, this delay in diagnosing the situation had affected the patient lifestyle tremendously.DiscussionAccordingly, knowledge of the signs and features of SSS can result in an accurate diagnosis. Suspected cases of silent sinus syndrome require prompt ear, nose, and throat referral for consideration of definitive diagnosis and surgical management. Nasal endoscopy and clinical evaluation are also essential for the diagnosis.ConclusionOur recommendation is to consider SSS as a differential diagnosis for patients with spontaneous enophthalmos and hypoglobus, even in the absence of maxillary sinus opacification. Moreover, encourage all the specialists in the medical and the dental field to communicate well together in cases like this.
