Abstrakt: Brugada syndrome (BrS) is characterized by coved ST segment elevation in the right precordial lead (V1-V3). Previous reports have described type-1 or type-2 Brugada ECG pattern as a Brugada phenocopy (BrP) in various clinical condition and once the etiology is resolved, the BrP ECG pattern normalizes. We describe a case report of type-1 Brugada ECG pattern in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and active pulmonary tuberculosis, which developed to spontaneous pneumopericardium and pericarditis. The coexistence of type-1 Brugada ECG pattern with spontaneous pneumopericardium and pericarditis is an extremely rare pathological condition that has not been previously described.
