Long QT syndrome mimicking seizure

Abstract

Long QT syndrome is a cardiac repolarization defect, characterized by recurrent syncope attacks. A detailed history not taken in time, can be often lead to confusion with seizures. A delay in diagnosis can lead to sudden death. Since continuing seizures despite antiepileptic treatment-resistant epilepsy were diagnosed, in this paper we report on a case with long QT syndrome.
