Abstract

A 67-year-old woman on long-term chloroquine treatment for rheumatoid arthritis presented with dizziness and syncope. Although her medical history revealed no cardiovascular disease, complete atrioventricular block was detected by electrocardiography. Chloroquine was discontinued. Three days later, complete atrioventricular block spontaneously resolved to sinus rhythm. Cardiac complications associated with chronic chloroquine use are uncommon, nevertheless, there have been several reports on potential lifethreatening rhythm disturbances and/or cardiomyopathy. In our case, atrioventricular block was associated with chronic chloroquine use. Cardiac evaluation with electrocardiography must be done for conduction disorders in patients using chloroquine for rheumatic diseases.

Özet

Romatoid artrit nedeniyle klorokin kullanan 67 yaşında kadın hasta, polikliniğimize baş dönmesi ve bayılma şikayetiyle başvurdu. Öncesinde kardiyak problemi olmayan hastanın çekilen elektrokardiyografisinde atriyoventriküler tam blok tespit edildi. Hastanın günlük klorokin alımı kesildi. Hastaneye yatışın 3. günü hastanın ritmi spontan olarak sinüs ritmine döndü. Klorokin kullanan kişilerde kardiyak komplikasyonlar nadir görülmesine rağmen klorokinin hayatı tehdit edici ritm bozuklukları, kardiyomyopatiler yaptığı çeşitli raporlarda belirtilmiştir. Bizim vakamızda, klorokin kullanımına bağlı atriyoventriküler tam blok gelişmişti. Romatolojik hastalıklar nedeniyle klorokin kullanması gereken hastalar, ileti bozuklukları açısından belirli periyotlarla elektrokardiyografi ile kontrol edilmelidir
