Resumen

El síndrome QT largo (SQTL) congénito representa un grupo de enfermedades cardiacas de origen genético, caracterizado por la prolongación del intervalo QT y una onda T anormal en el electrocardiograma (ECG). Pueden tener una expresión dominante o recesiva, esta última asociada con sordera neurosensorial. En ambos casos su presentación clínica está asociada con síncopes recurrentes y muerte súbita como consecuencia de una taquicardia ventricular, específicamente a torsades de pointes. Actualmente se clasifican en función del defecto genético específico, pudiendo comprometer alrededor de 16 genes y casi 2000 mutaciones. Debe ser sospechada en individuos con la clínica relacionada, hallazgos electrocardiográficos y antecedentes familiares. El manejo está basado en la disminución o eliminación de los síntomas y, concomitantemente, la prevención de la muerte súbita (MS), en aquellos niños con sordera congénita el manejo requiere la aplicación de medidas propias del otorrinolaringólogo. Desde el punto de vista cardiovascular, el manejo implica la modificación de estilos de vida, principalmente la prohibición de deportes competitivos, entre ellos la natación, evitar la exposición a sonidos intensos o factores desencadenantes. La medicación usada abarca a los betabloqueadores y, más raramente, flecainida, ranozalina y verapamilo; el manejo invasivo consiste el implante de un cardiodesfibrilador o, incluso, la denervación simpática izquierda, cada una de ellas con sus propios riesgos y beneficios. En cualquiera de los casos debemos evitar las circunstancias que incrementen el intervalo QT, así como realizar el adecuado análisis de los beneficios y riesgos de cada posible medida invasiva.
