Cardiac denervation in postural tachycardia syndrome

Carl-Albrecht Haensch et al. Clin Auton Res. 2008 Feb.

Abstract

Myocardial 123I-Meta-iodobenzylguanidine uptake was markedly reduced in a patient with postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS). This finding suggests that loss of sympathetic autonomic neurons in the heart may play a role in the etiology of POTS.
