Abstract

Brugada syndrome is a known electrophysiological phenomenon associated with high risk of sudden cardiac death. However, there are a number of published case reports showing a Brugada pattern in patients due to an underlying agent or cause. This case provides the nearly ideal clinical setup for a patient presenting with electrocardiographic findings of Brugada due to multiple factors requiring treatment of the underlying causes without need for further long term interventions.
