May prompt arrhythmia evaluation in symptomatic myotonic dystrophy type 2; hypothesis-generating for Brugada association.
Case Report (n=2)
Brugada-like cardiac arrhythmias may occur in patients with myotonic dystrophy type 2, suggesting a potential association between the two conditions.
Rudnik‐Schöneborn et al. (2010) conducted a case report in Myotonic dystrophy type 2 (DM2) and Brugada-like cardiac disease (n=2). Myotonic dystrophy type 2 (DM2) was evaluated on Brugada-like cardiac arrhythmias and ECG findings. Two unrelated patients with myotonic dystrophy type 2 developed clinically relevant cardiac arrhythmias with syncopal events and Brugada-like ECG findings, suggesting a potential association.
