概要

Two severe valvular heart disease cases complicated by multiple occurrence of ventricular premature contractions (VPC) are presented. In both cases conventional anti-arrythmic therapy failed to suppress VPC's, but after administration of vitamin E in a dose of 100mg/day VPC's disappeared almost completely. Both cases subsequently underwent valve replacement operation and have been in a good condition to date. Vitamin E is reported to have oxygen free radical scavenging effect in the myocardium. We might assume that vitamin E, by restotring normal metabolism due to its oxygen free radical scavenging effect, abolished VPC.
