2 Rare Syndromes in 1 Patient
A 19-year-old man survived sudden cardiac arrest caused by ventricular fibrillation during physical activity. The initial suspicion that this was caused by electrolyte imbalance proved to be wrong. Cardiac computed tomography revealed congenital heart disease. Coronary imaging is an essential component of the comprehensive diagnostic workup after sudden cardiac arrest.
