-
The hyperkalemic periodic paralyses are a clinically heterogeneous group of autosomal dominant syndromes characterized by episodic paralysis associated with an elevated serum potassium level. Affected individuals in the same family tend to have homogeneous symptom complexes, although phenotypic variation is present among different families. For example, myotonia is absent in some pedigrees, present in others, and, in a third variant, paramyotonia congenita, myotonia coexists with cold-induced...
