TY - JOUR PY - 1983// TI - Traumatic myocardial infarct in the sportsman JO - Annales de Cardiologie et d'angéiologie(Paris) A1 - Bouchet, G. A1 - Rey, J. L. A1 - Boutillier, C. A1 - Quiret, J. C. A1 - Bernasconi, P. SP - 331 EP - 335 VL - 32 IS - 5 N2 - The authors report the case of a 38 year old sportsman who received a football in the centre of his chest during a football [soccer] match. Over the following minutes, he experienced a mid-thoracic pain which corresponded to the development of a myocardial infarction which was secondarily complicated by left ventricular failure. Ventriculography revealed a large apical aneurysm and coronary angiography revealed thrombosis of the anterior interventricular artery. Based on this case, the authors discuss the mechanism of cardiac trauma and the type of coronary lesions.
