Abstract
A case of a professional ice-hockey with a blunt chest trauma is presented. A year after the first cardiac evaluation, he experienced sustained ventricular tachycardia after another slight chest trauma. An implantable cardioverter-defibrillator was implanted. The pathophysiological background of tachycardias after a blunt chest trauma and its management are discussed.Entities:
