UNLABELLED: Triadin knockout syndrome has been defined as a disease with transient long QT, T wave abnormalities, and extremely severe fatal cardiac arrhythmias in young children. In this report, we wanted to share the characteristics of our two cases who presented with sudden cardiac arrest and were diagnosed with triadin knockout syndrome.
CASE 1: A 7.5-year-old male patient was referred to our clinic with a history of recurrent syncope and aborted cardiac arrest. There was no family history of sudden death, syncope, or arrhythmia. Physical examination, electrocardiography, echocardiography, and 24-hour rhythm Holter monitoring were normal, and bidirectional ventricular tachycardiaT was detected during the exercise stress test. Genetic analysis revealed a homozygous mutation of c.531_533delinsGG, p.(Lys179Asnfs * 44) frameshift variant in TRDN(NM_006073) gene.
CASE 2: A 4.5-year-old male was admitted due to syncope during exertion and underwent cardiopulmonary resuscitation due to sudden cardiac arrest. He had family history about sudden cardiac death. Physical examination was normal, and there was borderline QTc prolongation. Bidirectional non-sustained polymorphic ventricular tachycardia was observed at adrenaline provocation test. In genetic analysis, c.568dupA, pII190Asnfs * 2 frameshift variant homozygous mutation was detected in TRDN(NM_006073) gene. Intracardiac defibrillator implantation were performed for both cases. There has not been any event under propranolol and flecainide combination treatment.
CONCLUSION: Triadin knockout syndrome (TCOS) is a rare overlap syndrome characterized by highly malignant arrhythmias, and it is a deadly combination of long QT syndrome and catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia that affects primarily young children. Since lethal arrhythmias are frequently described, genetic testing is very important in these patients. Because, identification of a genetic mutation may be a guide in treatment.
