Popis: | A 55-year-old patient presented with stable angina pectoris with normal physical examination on rest electrocardiogram and cardiac echocardiogram. Treadmill test revealed exercise-induced left posterior fascicular block, which is an uncommon and easily unnoticed marker of coronary artery disease. A dobutamine stress echocardiogram was performed, with a clearly positive result. Coronary angiography revealed critical stenosis in the right coronary artery. Resumo: Doente de 55 anos com angina estável e com eletrocardiograma e ecocardiograma normais. A prova de esforço em tapete rolante revelou bloqueio fascicular anterior esquerdo induzido pelo esforço, um marcador relativamente pouco conhecido de doença coronária. Foi realizado um ecocardiograma de esforço com dobutamina que foi claramente positivo. A angiografia coronária revelou estenose crítica da artéria coronária direita. |
