We present a case of accidental electrocution in a 62-years-old male. After the accident he referred a non-specific thoracic pain that disappeared in a week, remaining asymptomatic since then. On the other hand, he shows a permanent electrocardiographic pattern of anterolateral subepicardial ischaemia. Myocardial function revealed by echocardiography and pertechnectate gammagraphy, showed an early primary damage, with a posterior slow tendency to recovery. Exercise treadmill test and Tallium-Dipyridamole test were normal, so an ischaemic background could be rejected in this case. No other diseases were presented, so the changes observed could be exclusively connected with the electrical accident. |
