Abstract Asymptomatic male patient, 53 years old, runner, showed a wide QRS tachycardia (aberrant atrial flutter) in the exercise test and, in the investigation has cardiac resonance compatible with non-compacted myocardium. After detraining period, he evolves with normalization of the image exam and is released for competitive sports practice.
Abstract 17-year-old female soccer player, in pre-participation sports evaluation, presented the exercise test with ischemic response. Undergoing coronary artery angiotomography that demonstrated four myocardial bridging. The risk was stratified by the perfusion study with myocardial perfusion scintigraphy using the Gated-SPECT technique with MIBI-99mTc associated with physical stress on a treadmill, in the absence of ischemia and symptoms, being released for the practice of competitive sports.
Asymptomatic Sportsman with Severe Coronary Artery Disease: Importance of Pre-Participation Evaluation and Exercise Test/ Myocardial Perfusion Scintigraphy Variables: Incremental Risk Stratification Value
Abstract The authors report a case of severe coronary artery disease in an asymptomatic sportsman and the importance of pre-participation evaluation and analysis of the variables obtained by the non-invasive methods in the cardiovascular incremental risk stratification.
