Prolonged
QT (PQT) is a myocardial repolarization disorder characterized by a
prolongation of the QT and a propensity to tachyarrhythmias, which may lead to
torsades de pointes ventricular tachycardia (TdPVT), polymorphic ventricular
tachycardia (PVT), and ventricular fibrillation. There are two forms of the
disorder, including congenital and acquired PQT. There are many drugs and
electrolyte disturbances that may lead to acquired form of PQT. Treatment of
these two types of PQT at acute statement is similar. We report the current
succesful therapies consisting of atrial pacing, lidocaine, and mexiletine for
a PQT patient.

QT (UQT), bir miyokardiyal repolarizasyon bozukluğu olup QT aralığının uzaması
ve taşiaritmilerle karakterizedir. Bu durum; torsades depointes ventriküler
taşikardisi (TdPVT), polimorfik ventriküler taşikardi (PVT) ve ventriküler
fibrilasyona neden olabilir. Konjenital ve edinsel olmak üzere iki formu
mevcuttur. Bu hastalığın edinsel formuna birçok ilaç veya elektrolit
dengesizliği sebep olabilir. Edinsel ve konjenital formlarının akut dönemde
tedavileri benzerdir. Biz olgu sunumumuzda tedaviye dirençli bir UQT hastasına
yapılan; atriyal uyarma, lidokain ve meksiletin gibi güncel tedavi
yöntemlerinin başarılı bir şekilde uygulanışını aktarmaya çalıştık.
