Abstract: (1132 Views)
Background & Aim: Brugada syndrome is a disease that disrupts the normal rhythm of the heart and is one of the rare causes of sudden cardiac arrest. This disorder manifests as ST segment elevation in the right precordial leads, causing ventricular arrhythmias. It can also cause syncope, convulsions, breathing disorders, or sudden death if it is not treated.
Case introduction: The patient was a 35-year-old man who was taken to the emergency room due to chest pain and loss of consciousness (fainting). In his electrocardiogram (ECG), Brugada syndrome-specific changes were observed, and the patient was transferred to the CCU.
Conclusion: Due to its low prevalence, this disease is usually not considered serious, and this may cause irreparable consequences for the patient, while it can be treated successfully with timely diagnosis.
