    AbstractWe herein report a 47-year-old man with relapsing polychondritis who developed monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT). His electrocardiogram in sinus rhythm showed a coved-type pattern, and there was no evidence of structural cardiac disease; therefore, he was diagnosed with Brugada syndrome. An electrophysiological study revealed a prolonged His-ventricular interval at the baseline. Two forms of VT were induced, which were shown to be bundle branch reentrant VT. A diagnosis of Brugada syndrome should not be ruled out in patients with monomorphic VTs, especially those with conduction abnormalities.
