( Death is the inevitable consequence of life, and ardiac asystole is a final outcome of the electrical ctivity of every heart. Commonly, cardiac asystole s preceded by a period irregular electrical activity, g, ventricular fibrillation. Even metabolically exausted “dying” heart is capable of producing a elatively lengthy “electrical storm” before its comlete arrest. However, the abrupt cessation of elecrical activity of an otherwise normal young heart, articularly if it proves irreversible, is a highly nusual and dramatic clinical event. In the “Electrocardiographic Curiosities” section f this issue, Dr. Riera and colleagues have decribed in their article “Brugada Syndrome with Atypcal ECG: Downsloping ST Segment Elevation in Inferior eads,” a tragic case of sudden unexpected noctural death (SUND) in an otherwise healthy young en of Southeast Asian origin (1). The patient had strong family history of SUND, a strikingly abnoral electrocardiogram (ECG), and a very unusual ype of electrical activity preceding his death. We elieve that this clinical case, presented originally as atypical Brugada syndrome,” deserves special atention, as it could potentially represent a new
