HIPERTROFIAS MIOCÁRDICAS NA ATAXIA DE FREIDREICH
View through CrossRef
A Ataxia de Friedreich é uma ataxia autossômica recessiva em que há envolvimento do sistema nervoso periférico, do sistema nervoso central e cardíaco. Este último ocorre em 2/3 dos doentes e é caracterizado pela presença de hipertrofia ventricular concêntrica. Objetivou-se neste trabalho apresentar o caso clínico de um paciente masculino, 18 anos, que procura ajuda médica com queixa de vertigem e perda de equilíbrio, associado à dispneia aos esforços extra-habituais. Ao ecocardiograma, evidenciada acentuada hipertrofia simétrica de ventrículo esquerdo. Teste genético confirmou positividade para Ataxia de Friedreich, esta então associada a cardiomiopatia hipertrófica, alvo de discussão neste relato de caso
