Figure 1. (A) Twelve-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) of the patient taken approximately 1 year before the operation. The ECG is normal: There are no J waves in V2. (B) Twelve-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) of the patient taken 1 week before the operation. The ECG changes clearly from the ECG 1 year ago. The arrow shows the saddle-back-type J waves in V2 (>2 mm) and ST increase (>1 mm), indicating that the patient has a type II Brugada syndrome ECG.
