Holiday heart syndrome (HHS) is an acute cardiac arrhythmia following an episode of binge drinking. We report a healthy 22-year-old male with HHS after one night of binge drinking. The patient had no family history of cardiomyopathy, arrhythmia, or cardiac disease. Diagnosis was made after a thorough workup, including imaging and laboratory analysis. After a two-year period with no repeat episodes of arrhythmia, the patient decided to follow up with electrophysiology on an as-needed basis. It is important for providers to consider HHS as a possible diagnosis of exclusion in cases of arrhythmia in the young population to avoid excessive healthcare costs.
假日心脏综合征(HHS)是一次暴饮后出现的急性心律失常。我们报告一名22岁健康男性在一夜暴饮后患上假日心脏综合征。该患者无心肌病、心律失常或心脏病家族史。经过包括影像学和实验室分析在内的全面检查后作出诊断。在两年没有心律失常复发后,患者决定根据需要进行电生理随访。对于医疗服务提供者来说,在年轻人群的心律失常病例中考虑将假日心脏综合征作为可能的排除性诊断很重要,以避免过高的医疗费用。
