Massive pulmonary embolism mimicking electrocardiographic pattern of Brugada syndrome
Özet
Brugada syndrome is an inherited heart disease without structural abnormalities that is thought to arise as a result of accelerated inactivation of Na channels and predominance of transient outward K current to generate a voltage gradient in the right ventricular layers. Brugada syndrome occurs in patients with structurally normal heart and predisposes patients to malignant ventricular arrhythmias. Acute pulmonary embolism has been associated with a variety of electrocardiograms, and rarely, it may mimic electrocardiographic pattern of Brugada syndrome and this condition was defined as Brugada phenocopy [1-4].
