Tachycardia dependent early repolarisation pattern in subarachnoid haemorrhage related takotsubo syndrome
We present a case of a patient who suffered subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH), complicated by takotsubo syndrome, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and ECG repolarisation abnormality, compatible with Brugada phenocopy. The early repolarisation morphology showed a paradox association with the cardiac cycle...

Zusammenfassung: | We present a case of a patient who suffered subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH), complicated by takotsubo syndrome, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and ECG repolarisation abnormality, compatible with Brugada phenocopy. The early repolarisation morphology showed a paradox association with the cardiac cycle length; a relationship not yet documented in SAH. Our observation also sheds light on the genesis of the “spiked helmet” ECG sign. |
