PRKAG2 is a rare autosomal dominant syndrome that mainly presents with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, ventricular preexcitation, and conduction abnormalities. This case report demonstrates that the PRKAG2 mutation presents with various phenotypes already in pediatric patients.
We describe the clinical and investigative findings in two families with a PRKAG2 mutation from the different variants in the gene on chromosome 7q36.1, emphasising that the variability of phenotypes and that presentation in childhood is common. Furthermore, we highlight that skeletal myopathy and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy are significant debilitating characteristics of the PRKAG2 mutation.
In our report of adult and pediatric patients, early presentation in childhood with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and skeletal muscle involvement was common, demonstrating the challenges of the clinical management of PRKAG2 mutations.
PRKAG2是一种罕见的常染色体显性综合征,主要表现为肥厚型心肌病、心室预激和传导异常。本病例报告表明,PRKAG2突变在儿科患者中已呈现出多种表型。
我们描述了两个来自7号染色体q36.1上该基因突变不同变体的携带PRKAG2突变的家庭的临床和检查结果,强调表型的变异性以及在儿童期出现这种情况很常见。此外,我们强调骨骼肌病和肥厚型心肌病是PRKAG2突变的显著致残特征。
在我们对成人和儿科患者的报告中,儿童期早期出现肥厚型心肌病和骨骼肌受累的情况很常见,这表明PRKAG2突变的临床管理具有挑战性。
