Abstract
Early repolarization (ER) is a benign electrographic pattern and
described as J-point elevation ≥1 mm in two or more adjacent inferior and/or lateral derivations, resulting in QRS slurring or notching (1-3). Some researchs have shown that ER might be one of the
arrhythmogenic reasons for idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (VF)
(1, 3). Here we present the case of a boy with inferolateral ER complicated by an electrical storm and treated with orciprenaline and
radiofrequency ablation of the Purkinje network.
