Abstract

The author reports the case of a 46-year old patient diagnosed with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (Brugada syndrome) further to induction of class Ic antiarrhythmic therapy for the management of paroxystic ventricular fibrillation. It would appear that this diagnosis is increasingly frequent in young patients with Brugada syndrome shown to be minimal or intermittent on electrocardiograms. Atrial arrhythmia was the only rhythmic pathology objectively evidenced in this patient and the author was consequently led to reconsider its prevalence in patients presenting this syndrome both in the literature and according to his personal experience.
