Brugada syndrome uncovered in patient with pseudohypoaldosteronism due to hyperkalaemia

Brugada syndrome is a rare sodium channelopathy that predisposes to an increased risk of malignant arrythmias and sudden cardiac death. Previous studies have reported that metabolic disturbances can uncover a Brugada ECG pattern. Given the risk of malignant arrhythmias, it is important to correctly...

description Brugada syndrome is a rare sodium channelopathy that predisposes to an increased risk of malignant arrythmias and sudden cardiac death. Previous studies have reported that metabolic disturbances can uncover a Brugada ECG pattern. Given the risk of malignant arrhythmias, it is important to correctly diagnose and treat Brugada syndrome. We report a case of Brugada syndrome uncovered by hyperkalaemia precipitated in a patient with pseudohypoaldosteronism.
