Ross syndrome (RS) is characterized by selective involvement of post-ganglionic skin sympathetic nerve fibres. We report a follow-up study in 4 patients to clarify whether in RS autonomic dysfunction spreads affecting also cardiovascular system.
The patients underwent cardiovascular reflexes (CVR) and microneurography recording of muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) for a follow-up mean period of 5years.
CVR and MSNA were normal at baseline and unchanged over the follow-up.
Cardiovascular autonomic system is spared in RS differently from skin autonomic activity dysfunction which progress over time. However, before drawing any definite conclusion, a large cohort of patients needs to be studied.
罗斯综合征(RS)的特征是节后皮肤交感神经纤维选择性受累。我们报告了对4例患者的随访研究,以阐明在RS中自主神经功能障碍是否会扩散并累及心血管系统。
患者接受了心血管反射(CVR)和肌肉交感神经活动(MSNA)的微神经ography记录,随访平均时间为5年。
CVR和MSNA在基线时正常,随访期间无变化。
与随时间进展的皮肤自主神经活动功能障碍不同,RS患者的心血管自主神经系统未受累。然而,在得出任何明确结论之前,需要对大量患者进行研究。
