" /> Sick sinus syndrome 1 - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Sick sinus syndrome 1;

Symbol : SSS1;

CISMeF acronym : SSS1;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Sinus rhythm, congenital absence of; Sinus bradycardia syndrome, familial; Sinus node disease, familial, autosomal recessive; Sick sinus syndrome, congenital;

Description : The term 'sick sinus syndrome' encompasses a variety of conditions caused by sinus node dysfunction. The most common clinical manifestations are syncope, presyncope, dizziness, and fatigue. Electrocardiogram typically shows sinus bradycardia, sinus arrest, and/or sinoatrial block. Episodes of atrial tachycardias coexisting with sinus bradycardia ('tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome') are also common in this disorder. SSS occurs most often in the elderly associated with underlying heart disease or previous cardiac surgery, but can also occur in the fetus, infant, or child without heart disease or other contributing factors, in which case it is considered to be a congenital disorder (Benson et al., 2003). - Genetic Heterogeneity In addition to the familial autosomal recessive form (SSS1), an autosomal dominant form of sick sinus syndrome (SSS2; 163800) is caused by mutation in the HCN4 gene (605206). Susceptibility to sick sinus syndrome (SSS3; 614090) is influenced by variation in the MYH6 gene (160710).;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the sodium channel, voltage-gated, type V, alpha polypeptide gene (SCN5A, 600163.0025);

Prefixed ID : #608567;
