We report the case of a patient with heterotaxy syndrome including complex single ventricular morphology and interrupted IVC in association with twin conduction systems and a nodoventricular accessory pathway connection. The presence of 3 distinct QRS morphologies was inadvertently discovered during a hemodynamic catheterization study and prompted formal EP testing prior to hepatic venous inclusion into the Fontan circuit and loss of access to the atrial chamber for testing and therapy. This patient underscores the importance of close surveillance and high index of suspicion of arrhythmia mechanisms in patients with heterotaxy syndrome in conjunction with single ventricle morphology.
我们报告了一例异构综合征患者,其包括复杂的单心室形态和 IVC 中断,同时伴有双传导系统和房室结附加旁路连接。在进行血流动力学导管插入术研究时,无意中发现了 3 种不同的 QRS 形态,这促使在进行肝静脉纳入 Fontan 循环之前以及无法进入心房腔进行测试和治疗之前,进行正式的 EP 测试。该患者强调了在具有单心室形态的异构综合征患者中,对心律失常机制进行密切监测和高度怀疑的重要性。
