Shortened PQ interval in the differential diagnosis of Anderson-Fabry disease: a case report

https://doi.org/10.15829/1560-4071-2022-5123

Abstract

In this article, we present a case of a patient with a late diagnosis of Fabry disease caused by a pathogenic variant in the GLA gene (p.1287_1288dup), who repeatedly attempted interventional treatment of Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome due to characteristic electrocardiographic pattern of ventricular preexcitation and paroxysmal arrhythmias. The proposed pathognomonic signs of the disease will ensure timely diagnosis and the appointment of specific treatment.
