    Author: Papantoniou N, Katsoulis I, Papageorgiou I, Antsaklis A.
    Journal: J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med; 2007 May; 20(5):419-21. PubMed ID: 17674248.
    Abstract:
    Long QT syndrome is a rare but severe cardiac arrhythmia. We report the antenatal and intrapartum management of a primigravida carrying the hereditary form of the disease and specifically the Romano-Ward syndrome. A multidisciplinary approach and close obstetric surveillance are mandatory for a good maternal and perinatal outcome. Follow-up of the neonate is equally important.
