[The professional athlete with the ventricular septum defect].
Journal Title: Kardiologia Polska - Year 2010, Vol 68, Issue 9
Abstract
The ventricular septum defect (VSD) is one of the congenital heart diseases that in developed countries can be rarely found in adults. We present a case of young athlete, member of the Polish Olympic Team, diagnosed with VSD during medical check-up. The congenital heart disease did not prevent the athlete from participating in sport on world-class level.
