Popis: | Chronic chest pain is a complaint that frequently prompts referral to pediatric cardiology clinics although very few pediatric patients with this symptom will be found to have cardiac disease. This review will discuss the common non-cardiac and cardiac causes of chest pain. Guidelines on the office management of this group of patients will be presented as well as the indications for referring patients for evaluation and treatment by the subspecialist. |
