Brugada phenocopy during right coronary artery dissection

Brugada phenocopies (BrP) are clinical entities that present with electrocardiograms identical to those found in Brugada Syndrome (BrS) but are the result of different medical conditions. This report provides evidence that atypical causes of myocardial ischemia may induce BrP. Appropriate electrocardiogram and clinical differentiation of Brugada phenocopy from true Brugada syndrome may prevent unnecessary treatments. Although patients with true high-risk BrS are candidates for ICD therapy, the natural history of BrP remains unknown and seems to be more benign, depending on the severity of the underlying condition.
