ABSTRACT
Brugada syndrome (BrS) may cause a spectrum of symptoms from asymptomatic patients to those who experience cardiac arrest and sudden cardiac death. The diagnosis is confirmed after observation of type I Brugada pattern on the electrocardiogram. Following the diagnosis, risk stratification can help select therapeutic options. Cascade screening should be started to find other family members with BrS. We present a 41-year-old woman diagnosed with BrS, and cascade screening of her relatives unveiled a pedigree of BrS among their family.
