Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia Originating From Right Ventricular Outflow Tract as a Trigger for the Recurrent Ventricular Fibrillation in a Patient With Brugada Syndrome

INTRODUCTION Brugada Syndrome is a cardiac ion channel disorder that affects the sodium current. This syndrome is characterized by cove-shaped ST elevation in ECG leads V1 to V3 in the absence of structural heart disease. CASE PRESENTATION A 36-year-old man diagnosed with Brugada Syndrome was reffered to our center with frequent implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) discharges. ICD int...

Mapping and ablation of ventricular fibrillation associated with long-QT and Brugada syndromes.

BACKGROUND The long-QT and Brugada syndromes are important substrates of malignant ventricular arrhythmia. The feasibility of mapping and ablation of ventricular arrhythmias in these conditions has not been reported. METHODS AND RESULTS Seven patients (4 men; age, 38+/-7 years; 4 with long-QT and 3 with Brugada syndrome) with episodes of ventricular fibrillation or polymorphic ventricular tac...

Role of pharmacotherapy in Brugada syndrome

Brugada syndrome is a unique form of idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (VF), and is characterized by an ECG pattern with right bundle branch block (J wave), ST-segment elevation and terminal T-wave inversion in leads V1 through V3 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10. It accounts for approximately 20% of all cases of sudden cardiac death in patients with structurally normal hearts and appears to be more freq...

Brugada syndrome—Malignant phenotype associated with acute cardiac inflammation?

Introduction Since the publication of the seminal case series in 1992 of right bundle branch block and persistent ST elevation in the right precordial leads associated with sudden death, there remain significant gaps in our knowledge surrounding Brugada syndrome. In particular, debate continues regarding its pathogenesis and has in part contributed to the difficulties in risk stratification of ...

Diagnosis and long-term follow-up of the Brugada syndrome in patients with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation.

AIMS Some patients with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation may suffer from the Brugada syndrome. The diagnostic criteria for the Brugada syndrome are uncertain and arbitrarily set. Therefore, we studied the prevalence of the Brugada syndrome using various diagnostic criteria and long-term follow-up in 37 idiopathic ventricular fibrillation patients. METHODS AND RESULTS Idiopathic ventricular...
