ABSTRACT

Brugada syndrome is a hereditary cardiac channelopathy that predisposes to ven-tricular tachyarrhythmias and, as a consequence, to sudden death. Its diagnosis is based on a specific electrocardiographic pattern. There are few reports on this syndrome in pregnancy. This article presents the case of a 26-year-old pregnant woman with implantable cardioverter-defibrillator due to this cause, who was referred to the National Department of Heart Disease in Pregnancy where she remained under monitoring, stable, without any complication. There are contro-versies about whether or not the increase in female hormones is a protective fac-tor in pregnant women with Brugada syndrome. Despite the generally benign course of this disease during pregnancy, there are still important questions to be clarified. The follow-up of patients is considered essential to guarantee maternal-fetal well-being.
