[T-wave alternans and Torsade de Pointes ventricular tachycardia in a patient with intracerebral hemorrhage].
A rare form of pause dependent form of torsade de pointes ventricular tachycardia and T-wave alternans is reported. The life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia was associated with left sided intracerebral hemorrhage and elevated CKMB mass and Troponin T (0.14 ng/ml). The possible pathomechanism of torsade de pointes tachycardia is discussed.
