Overview

Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive condition that leads to sensorineural deafness, abnormal ventricular myocardial repolarization with results in long QT syndrome (LQTS) and other cardiac events. Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome is due to KCNQ1 or KCNE1 gene mutations. The range of symptoms and severity of symptoms in Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome differs from patient to patient.

Historical Perspective

  • Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS) was first discovered by Anton Jervell a Norwegian physician and Fred Lange-Nielsen a Norwegian doctor and jazz musician, in 1957.[1][2]

Classification

  • Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS) may be classified according into two subtypes:[3][4][5][6]
Type Chromosome Locus Gene Mutation Protein Involved
Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome 1 11p15​.5-p15.4 KCNQ1 Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily KQT member 1
Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome 2 21q22​.12 KCNE1 Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E member 1

Epidemiology and Demographics

Incidence

  • The incidence of Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS) is approximately 1 per 100,000 individuals in Norway.[27][28]
  • The incidence of Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS) is approximately 1 per 100,000 individuals in Sweden.
  • It is estimated that Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS) affects 166,000 to 625,000 children worldwide.

Prevalence

  • The prevalence of Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS) is approximately 1:200,000 individuals in Norway.[1]

Age

  • The incidence of Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS) increases with age; the median age at diagnosis is 6.8 years.[29][30]
  • The exact time of presentation in Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS) is highly variable.

Gender

  • Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS) affects men and women equally. But the severity of cardiac events is much more common in men.[31]

Diagnosis

Diagnostic Study of Choice

  • Molecular genetic testing is the gold standard test for the diagnosis of Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS).
  • The following result of molecular genetic testing is confirmatory of Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS):
    • KCNQ1 or KCNE1 pathogenic gene mutation variants identification

OR

[Name of the investigation] must be performed when:

  • The patient presents with [symptom/sign 1], [symptom/sign 2], and [symptom/sign 3].
  • A [name of test] is positive for [sign 1], [sign 2], and [sign 3] in the patient.
