The Brugada syndrome is an important cause of sudden cardiac death primarily among males without structural heart disease. Although not widely known, it may be unmasked by an acute febrile illness. An association between mastitis and Brugada syndrome has not been previously reported. We describe an 18-year-old postpartum female who developed mastitis, fever, and syncope. Electrocardiography revealed type 1 Brugada pattern, which disappeared once her fever resolved. Although the role of pregnancy in this syndrome is unknown, clinicians should be aware that fever may precipitate Brugada syndrome among peripartum women.
Brugada综合征是主要在无结构性心脏病的男性中导致心源性猝死的重要原因。尽管尚不广为人知，但它可能会被急性发热性疾病诱发。此前尚未有乳腺炎与Brugada综合征之间关联的报道。我们描述了一名18岁的产后女性，她出现了乳腺炎、发热和晕厥。心电图显示为1型Brugada波型，发热消退后该波型消失。虽然妊娠在该综合征中的作用尚不清楚，但临床医生应意识到发热可能在围产期女性中诱发Brugada综合征。
