Brugada syndrome behind complete right bundle-branch block.
BACKGROUND The characteristic ECG of Brugada syndrome (BS) can be masked by complete right bundle-branch block (CRBBB) and exposed by resolution of the block or pharmacological or pacing maneuvers. METHODS AND RESULTS The study consisted of 11 patients who had BS and CRBBB. BS was diagnosed before the development of CRBBB, on the resolution of CRBBB, or from new characteristic ST-segment chan...
متن کاملIncidence and Clinical Significance of Brugada Syndrome Masked by Complete Right Bundle-Branch Block.
BACKGROUND Brugada syndrome (BrS)-type electrocardiogram (ECG) is concealed by complete right bundle-branch block (CRBBB) in some cases of BrS. Clinical significance of BrS masked by CRBBB is not well known. METHODSANDRESULTS We reviewed an ECG database of 326 BrS patients who had type 1 ECG with or without pilsicainide. "BrS masked by CRBBB" was defined on ECG as <2-mm elevation of the J poi...
متن کاملTransient Brugada phenocopy during evolving ischemic right bundle branch block
A “Brugada phenocopy” (BrP) is a clinical presentation exhibiting the same electrocardiographic characteristics of true Brugada syndrome (BrS) in different clinical scenarios. We report the clinical case of a 59-year-old male patient with acute chest pain depicting BrP followed by extensive convex ST-segment elevation due to proximal thrombosis of the left descending coronary artery. Following ...
متن کاملPosterior myocardial infarction and complete right bundle- branch block.
We describe two patients with posterior myocardial infarction (PMI) with unusually atypical clinical presentations and cardiac enzymatic profiles, but with the abrupt development of complete AV block in patient 1, and Mobitz II second-degree AV block with paroxysmal phases of higher degrees of AV block in patient 2, and mitral regurgitation leading to symptomatic pulmonary congestion. Also, bot...
متن کاملIncomplete Right Bundle-Branch Block
Incomplete right bundle-branch block (IRBBB) usually is thought to be associated with abnormalities of the peripheral Purkinje system. This paper discusses the results of a study of six dogs from the same family and three nonrelated dogs with congenital IRBBB. Cardiac catheterization data were normal, and no evidence or history of cardiac disease was found before or after death. The depolarizat...
