Abstract

Brugada phenocopies (BrP) are clinical entities that are characterized by ECG patterns identical to those of Brugada syndrome, but are the result of various clinical conditions. We describe the case of a 41-year-old male who exhibited BrP due to a left ventricular aneurysm in the context of chronic coronary artery disease.

Keywords: Brugada phenocopy; Electrocardiogram; Left ventricular aneurysm.
