Description
A heart tracing that looked like Brugada syndrome hid a deeper disease in a 2026 case from Antonio Scarà and colleagues. Their patient was a 51-year-old man. He fainted during a fever. His tracing showed the classic Brugada pattern, then faded.
First checks found nothing wrong. A day-long heart monitor then caught mixed abnormal beats. Both heart sides seemed to be involved. Heart scans showed a scar outside the usual blood supply pattern. Electrical mapping found more sick tissue in the right chamber. Provoked testing triggered lasting dangerous rhythms. Doctors placed an implantable defibrillator. The case warns against stopping at the first neat label.
