摘要

We report on the long QT syndrome occurring in conjunction with nontoxic multinodular goiter and sensorineural deafness in several siblings of a large family. Autosomal and X-linked recessive and dominant modes of inheritance are possible for the different phenotypes. The affected family members had various phenotype combinations, suggesting variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance.
