Anaesthetic management of a patient of Brugada syndrome for an emergency appendicectomy.

Brugada syndrome is a myocardial transmembrane conduction of sodium abnormality and a common cause of sudden cardiac death. It is characterized by a distinctive electrocardiograph pattern with right bundle branch block and ST segment elevation in precordial leads V1-V3. Many factors during general anesthetic management could precipitate malignant dysrhythmia. We report the anesthetic management of a patient with Brugada syndrome for emergency appendectomy uneventfully.
