BACKGROUND: Prolonged Tp-Te interval is strongly associated with fatal ventricular arrhythmias and mortality. This association has been demonstrated in various diseases. However, the current literature does not give any information on Tp-Te interval in cardiac amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis.
METHODS: We retrospectively screened 116 cardiac AL amyloidosis patients and 35 patients were included in the study. Demographic, laboratory, 12-lead electrocardiographic (QTc, Tp-Te V1-V6) and transthoracic echocardiographic data of the patients were analysed and compared with 35 healthy controls.
RESULTS: QTc and Tp-Te V2-V5 were significantly prolonged in the cardiac AL amyloidosis group (p < 0.05). Also, there was a positive and statistically significant correlation between the parameters of QTc and Tp-Te V3-V6, and also between the parameters of interventricular septum thickness at enddiastole and Tp-Te V2-V5.
CONCLUSION: We present the first strong evidence of prolonged Tp-Te intervals in patients with cardiac AL amyloidosis. There may also be a relationship between prolonged Tp-Te interval and the development of arrhythmia in this patient group, as in some other groups. There is a need for prospective studies examining the relationship of prolonged Tp-Te interval with arrhythmias and its prognostic significance in cardiac AL amyloidosis.
