Synonyms and keywords: Juvenile T waves

Overview

The Juvenile T-wave pattern refers to a normal electrocardiographic variant in which T wave inversions are present in precordial leads V₁, V₂, and V₃ along with an early repolarization pattern.

Natuarl History, Complications, Prognosis

Juvenile T-waves may persists into adulthood with no adverse sequela.

Differentiating persistent Juvenile T-wave pattern from other causes of T-wave inversion

Persistent juvenile T-wave inversion must be differentiated from other diseases that cause T-wave inversion, such as:   

• Arrhythmogenic RV dysplasia should be suspected in this cohort if the T wave inversion persists beyond lead V₁ in a post pubertal male athlete

• Cerebrovascular accidents can cause deep widely splayed T waves referred to as cerebral T waves

• Digoxin effect or Dig effect

• Electrolyte disturbance

• Ischemic heart disease including non ST segment elevation MI or prior MI

• Left bundle branch block, it is normal for the T wave to be inverted if the QRS complex is upright

• Left ventricular hypertrophy with strain

• Myocarditis

• Premature ventricular contraction

• Pulmonary embolism, particularly in the anterior precordium

• Restrictive cardiomyopathy

• Subarachnoid hemorrhage

• Unstable angina

• Wellens' syndrome

• Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW)
