Brugada syndrome, first described over 20 years ago, is characterized by a typical electrocardiographic pattern with coved-type ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads and a high risk of sudden death in otherwise healthy young adults. The electrocardiographic pattern is sometimes intermittent, and fever is a possible trigger. The authors present the case of a 68-year-old woman who ca...
متن کاملBrugada syndrome.
First introduced as a new clinical entity in 1992, the Brugada syndrome is associated with a relatively high risk of sudden death in young adults, and occasionally in children and infants. Recent years have witnessed a striking proliferation of papers dealing with the clinical and basic aspects of the disease. Characterized by a coved-type ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads of t...
متن کامل[Brugada syndrome].
The Brugada syndrome is characterised clinically by the occurrence of syncope or sudden death due to ventricular arrhythmias in patients with structurally normal hearts and electrocardiographic signs of right bundle branch block and ST elevation in the right precordial leads (V1 to V3). The transmission of the condition is autosomal dominant with variable penetration. Mutations have been identi...
