Recurrent acute myocardial infarction during sport.
A 48-yr-old well conditioned man developed acute myocardial infarction twice during sporting activities. After both events right coronary angiography showed a moderate proximal stenosis and, 5 months later, a subtotal obstruction at the site of prior slight lumen irregularity. This case suggests a causal relationship between sport and the occurrence of acute coronary events.
