The vast majority of sudden cardiac arrests occur in patients with structural heart disease and in approximately 10% of the cases, it can occur in those with structurally normal hearts. Brugada syndrome is an autosomal dominant sodium channelopathy that has been implicated in sudden deaths. Given their low prevalence, our knowledge about Brugada syndrome is still evolving. Apart from schizophrenia, there have been no reports of associated medical conditions. We recently encountered a patient with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome who was also found to have Brugada syndrome. Both these conditions share some common clinical presentations including a propensity for sudden death.
绝大多数心脏骤停发生在患有结构性心脏病的患者中，约10%的病例可发生在心脏结构正常的患者中。Brugada综合征是一种常染色体显性遗传的钠通道病，与猝死有关。鉴于其低患病率，我们对Brugada综合征的了解仍在不断发展。除了精神分裂症外，尚无相关疾病的报道。我们最近遇到一名患有血管性埃勒斯-当洛综合征的患者，该患者同时也被发现患有Brugada综合征。这两种疾病有一些共同的临床表现，包括猝死倾向。
