ABSTRACT

Desde su primera descripción el Sindrome de Brugada ha despertado gran interés científico como causa de muerte súbita. Presentamos el caso de un varón de 45 años quien ingresó al hospital en arresto cardiaco y en su evolución se le diagnosticó Sindrome de Brugada lográndose el implante de un cardiodesfibrilador como opción terapéutica definitiva. Resaltamos la importancia de reconocer el patrón electrocardiográfico característico y de considerar esta canalopatía en el diagnóstico diferencial de muerte súbita.


Since its first description the Brugada Syndrome has attracted great scientific interest because it is a cause ofsudden death. We show the case of a man 45 years old who arrived to our hospital in cardiac arrest. During hospitalization he was diagnosed with Brugada Syndrome. He received an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator as definitive treatment. We highlight the importance of being aware of the classic electrocardiographic pattern and considering this channelopathy in the differential diagnosis of cardiac arrest.
