Presentation
The cases are presented and discussed in a retrospective case review. Two of the children are dead. The corrected QT (QTc) interval in the ECG was markedly prolonged in all the children (median QTc, 0.59 sec; range, 0.53–0.65). [journals.lww.com]
CASE PRESENTATION: We report the case of a 10-year-old Moroccan boy with congenital hearing loss and severely prolonged QT interval who presented with multiple episodes of syncope. His parents are first-degree cousins. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Ears

Normal Hearing
One asymptomatic sibling of the proband had long QTc and normal hearing. The mother and another sibling were asymptomatic; QTc and hearing were normal in both. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The latter is a feature of some but not all cases of this syndrome (the parents in this family had normal hearing). The risk of an irregular heart beat leading to the risk of sudden death can be reduced with an implanted defibrillator. [wohproject.org]
Family members with one mutant KVLQT1 allele had the long-QT syndrome but had normal hearing. [nejm.org]
Both I:2 and II:4 had normal hearing. Individual III:4 was a male with a borderline QTc of 0.447 s. No stress testing was performed for III:4 or other family members. [bmcmedgenet.biomedcentral.com]

Short Arm
Each chromosome has a short arm designated “p” and a long arm designated “q”. Chromosomes are further sub-divided into many bands that are numbered. For example, “chromosome 11p15.5” refers to band 15 on the short arm of chromosome 11. [rarediseases.org]
Keating et al 12 detected a DNA marker at the Harvey ras-1 locus on the short arm of chromosome 11 linked to a cohort of families with LQTS. [ispub.com]
-
Long Arm
The KCNE1 gene is located on the long arm (q) of chromosome 21 (21q22.1-q22.2). Recessive genetic disorders occur when an individual inherits the same abnormal gene for the same trait from each parent. [rarediseases.org]

Suggestibility
SUGGESTED PROGRAMMATIC ASSESSMENT* Suggested MER for Evaluation: • Clinical history and examination that describes the diagnostic features of the impairment; • Complete otologic examination and audiometric testing within 2 months of the otologic examination [secure.ssa.gov]
When researching Jervell Lange-Nielsen syndrome, some studies suggest this is responsible for 9.5% of all the SIDS cases. [hearinghealthmatters.org]
This suggested that KCNE1 could be the morbid gene responsible for an autosomal recessive cardio-auditory disease, the Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome, characterized by ventricular repolarization abnormalities and recurrent syncopes leading eventually [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Workup
This case is reported to highlight the importance of careful cardiac evaluation as a standard workup for cochlear implant. Preoperative and perioperative management of such cases is briefly discussed. [indianjotol.org]
During pre-anaesthesia workup, the child was still on mechanical ventilation with 100% oxygen. Chest auscultation revealed bilateral coarse crepitations (possible aspiration at the time of convulsions). [ijaweb.org]

T Wave Inversion
These changes include prolongation of the QT interval and T-wave inversion. Treatment may include the use of beta-blockers to prevent the development of malignant ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Intraoperatively, there was no major cardiac event except for T-wave inversion which reverted to normal spontaneously at the end of the surgery. The child was shifted to the ICU on mechanical ventilation and anti-arrhythmic drugs. [ijaweb.org]

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and effect of pacing in addition to beta-blocker treatment in children with JLNS. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
TREATMENT An interdisciplinary team of health care providers usually treat issues associated with JLNS. This team may consist of an otologist or otolaryngologist, cardiologist, audiologist, or speech language pathologist. [secure.ssa.gov]
Prognosis
Prognosis More than half of untreated children die before 15 years of age. [orpha.net]
Prognosis - Jervell Lange-Nielsen syndrome Not supplied. [checkorphan.org]
Prognosis: Life span and quality of life can be normal but less so among many who suffer frequent syncopal episodes and arrhythmias due to the risk of cardiac arrest. [wohproject.org]
Etiology
RESULTS: Compound mutations of KCNQ1 were found to be the genetic etiology of four patients from three families. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Etiology JLNS is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in either the KCNQ1 gene (locus LQT1; 11p15.5) or the KCNE1 gene (locus LQT5; 21q22.1-q22.2) and is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. [orpha.net]

Epidemiology
Authored by 60 internationally recognized researchers, the book describes the normal development of the ear, updates the classification and epidemiology of hearing loss, and surveys the usage of audiometric tests and diagnostic medical examinations. [books.google.com]
Summary Epidemiology The disease is very rare. Prevalence is unknown and varies depending on the population studied (1/200,000-1/1,000,000) but is more common in countries in which consanguineous marriage is frequent. [orpha.net]
Epidemiology The disorder may be sporadic or transmitted as an autosomal-dominant trait. [patient.info]
