Brugada syndrome: A new mutation found in Norway
Brugada syndrome is increasingly recognized as a clinical syndrome world wide. We report a case with a new SCN5A mutation. As the awareness of this disease entity increases more cases will probably be found.

متن کاملNew Electrocardiographic Features in Brugada Syndrome
Brugada syndrome is a genetically determined familial disease with autosomal dominant transmission and variable penetrance, conferring a predisposition to sudden cardiac death due to ventricular arrhythmias. The syndrome is characterized by a typical electrocardiographic pattern in the right precordial leads. This article will focus on the new electrocardiographic features recently agreed on by...
متن کاملA Double SCN5A Mutation Underlying Asymptomatic Brugada Syndrome
Objective/Background: Patients with the Brugada syndrome who experience syncope or aborted sudden death are at high risk for recurrent lethal arrhythmias. However, the prognosis and the therapeutic approaches in asymptomatic individuals with a Brugada-type ECG (asymptomatic Brugada syndrome) are controversial. Methods/ Results: We genetically screened 30 asymptomatic probands (male 29, female 1...
متن کاملCardiac conduction defects and Brugada syndrome: A family with overlap syndrome carrying a nonsense SCN5A mutation☆
BACKGROUND Phenotypes often differ even within family members carrying the same SCN5A mutation. We aimed to evaluate the genetic modifiers in a family with Brugada syndrome (BrS) and sick sinus syndrome (SSS) with an SCN5A mutation that causes the truncated alpha-subunit of cardiac Na channel protein. METHODS To detect the genetic modifiers, we performed targeted panel sequencing of the codin...
