ABSTRACT
Brugada syndrome is a new clinical entity first described by Brugada and Brugada in 1992. It has a characteristic ECG pattern but it can be missed. We report on a Jordanian patient who has been presented with this syndrome. Introduction Brugada syndrome is one of several conditions that can cause sudden cardiac death in a patient with a structurally normal heart. Diagnosis is based on demonstration of the characteristic electrocardiographic patterns, caused by a mutation in the cardiac sodium channels
