Abstract

Katz-Wachtel phenomenon is an electrocardiogram (ECG) sign demonstrating large equiphasic precordial QRS complexes indicative of biventricular hypertrophy. This sign is most commonly seen in children with congenital heart disease and is rarely described in adults. We report a case where this ECG sign was noted in an adult with dilated cardiomyopathy and discuss the possible mechanisms for this unusual finding.

一名患有扩张型心肌病的成年人的卡茨-瓦特尔现象。
卡茨-瓦特尔现象是一种心电图(ECG)征象,表现为大的等相心前区 QRS 波群,提示双心室肥大。这种体征最常见于患有先天性心脏病的儿童,在成人中很少见。我们报告了一例在患有扩张型心肌病的成人中发现这种心电图征象的病例,并讨论了这种不寻常发现的可能机制。
