ABSTRACT
Holiday heart syndrome (HHS) is an acute cardiac arrhythmia following an episode of binge drinking. We report a healthy 22-year-old male with HHS after one night of binge drinking. The patient had no family history of cardiomyopathy, arrhythmia, or cardiac disease. Diagnosis was made after a thorough workup, including imaging and laboratory analysis. After a two-year period with no repeat episodes of arrhythmia, the patient decided to follow up with electrophysiology on an as-needed basis. It is important for providers to consider HHS as a possible diagnosis of exclusion in cases of arrhythmia in the young population to avoid excessive healthcare costs.
