A Novel Frameshift Mutation, KCNH2 [p.Asp896ArgfsX79], Leading to Malignant Ventricular Arrhythmia, Identified After Treatment of Gastrointestinal BleedingNovel Teaching Points

A novel frameshift mutation in the KCNH2 gene for long QT syndrome type 2 (LQTS2) was identified after torsades des pointes ventricular tachycardia in a 49-year-old patient managed with octreotide and nadolol for an acute variceal bleed. In spite of removal of offending medications, and correction o...
