A 52-year-old male was admitted with unstable angina and three-vessel coronary artery disease. Electrocardiography (ECG) changes consistent with type-1 Brugada ECG pattern were noted during admission. The patient was asymptomatic for syncope and had no family history of sudden cardiac death, ICD implantation, and Brugada syndrome. After coronary by-pass graft the Brugada ECG pattern resolved, and ajmaline test did not elicit type-1 ECG pattern, confirming the suspicion of Brugada phenocopy.

Abstract
A 52-year-old male was admitted with unstable angina and three-vessel coronary artery disease. Electrocardiography (ECG) changes consistent with type-1 Brugada ECG pattern were noted during admission. The patient was asymptomatic for syncope and had no family history of sudden cardiac death, ICD implantation, and Brugada syndrome. After coronary by-pass graft the Brugada ECG pattern resolved, and ajmaline test did not elicit type-1 ECG pattern, confirming the suspicion of Brugada phenocopy.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
