Myocardial bridging can cause ventricular tachycardia in competitive athletes, highlighting the need to evaluate coronary artery anatomy during arrhythmia work-up.
Myocardial bridging should be considered in the differential diagnosis for competitive athletes presenting with ventricular tachycardia, syncope, and chest discomfort.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
Arrhythmias associated with syncope and chest discomfort in competitive athletes include a wide differential. Evaluation of coronary artery anatomy is an essential component of work-up for a potential etiology.
