Abstract

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease caused by Leptospira spirochaetes. Cardiac involvement in leptospirosis is frequent yet underdiagnosed. We describe a myocarditis case showing Brugada pattern Type 1, a rare leptospirosis cardiac complication. As myocarditis is an atypical cardiac manifestation of leptospirosis, it is important to investigate anything sign related to cardiac involvement in managing leptospirosis.
