Overview
Abnormalities that can lead to ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads include the following:[1]
- Acute myocardial ischemia or infarction
- Acute myocarditis
- Acute pericarditis
- Acute pulmonary thromboemboli
- Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia / cardiomyopathy (ARVD/C)
- Cocaine intoxication
- Coronary spasm
- Dissecting aortic aneurysm
- Duchenne muscular dystrophy
- Early repolarization
- Friedreich ataxia
- Heterocyclic antidepressant overdose
- Hypercalcemia
- Hyperkalemia
- Hypothermia, causing Osborn wave in ECGs and sometimes resembling Brugada syndrome
- Left ventricular hypertrophy
- Prinzmetal's angina[2]
- Mediastinal tumor compressing the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT)
- Right (atypical) or left bundle-branch block
- Right ventricular infarction
- Right ventricular ischemia
- Thiamine deficiency
- Various central and autonomic nervous system abnormalities
- Other conditions that can lead to ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads
- Early repolarization syndrome
- Other normal variants (particularly in males)

Of note, a Brugada-like ECG can occasionally appear for a brief period or for a period of several hours after direct-current cardioversion; it is not known whether these patients are gene carriers for Brugada syndrome.[http//circ.ahajournals.org/content/111/5/659.full?sid=52a12e4b-8533-4741-9be3-49a596258e4b#ref-38 38–40]
