Diagnosing a rare condition does not necessarily mean it is the cause of a patient's presentation and should not end the investigative process. Right coronary artery from the opposite sinus rarely causes cardiac arrest in middle age and is typically associated with peak exercise. Type 1 BrS is associated with cardiac arrest with vagal activity, perhaps such as England winning a World Cup game! Clinical correlation and risk stratification is required for suspected incidental findings.
