Clinical presentation of Brugada syndrome is characterized by a male predominance with syncope or sudden death, mostly at an average age of 40 years. We report 2 male patients, in whom the diagnosis was made at the ages of 71 and 74 years, respectively. They presented with aborted sudden death or repeated syncope. They had coved-type Brugada ECG, and one of them had positive procainamide provocative test. Both received implantation of a cardioverter defibrillator. One had recurrent events and received ICD discharge within 4 weeks after implantation. Our study showed that Brugada syndrome could occur in the elderly, and its clinical presentations were as severe as those in younger patients.[SDGs]SDG3procainamide; quinidine; age distribution; aged; article; Brugada syndrome; case report; clinical feature; defibrillator; disease course; electrocardiogram; heart ventricle arrhythmia; heart ventricle tachycardia; human; male; provocation test; QT interval; sex difference; ST segment elevation; sudden death; syncope; Taiwanjournal article2-s2.0-20844452055
