heart Murmur- Basketball<br />

Michael R. Tiso, Luis Salazar. Ohio State, Columbus, OH.<br />

(No relationships reported)<br />

hIsTOry: A 19-year-old African American college sophomore basketball player<br />

presented for a routine pre-participation physical. He reported no previous medical<br />

conditions or injuries, syncope with exercise, or previous loss of consciousness. He<br />

stated he had never had chest pain, shortness of breath, or palpitations while playing<br />

basketball. The athlete had no family history of sudden death but reports his mother<br />

had a “heart valve problem with prior surgeries.”<br />

PhysICaL EXaMINaTION: Vitals: Blood pressure 120/80, pulse 55, respiratory<br />

rate 14, and BMI 25. The patient was a physically fit athlete in no distress. A<br />

musculoskeletal exam showed normal strength, tone, and sensation. Respirations were<br />

clear to auscultation bilaterally. Cardiac exam revealed a regular rate and rhythm with<br />

normal S1/S2 and no gallop, rub, S3, or S4. JVD was not present, he had brisk carotid<br />

upstrokes bilaterally, and peripheral pulses were 2+ throughout. A 3/6 systolic murmur<br />

was heard loudest along the left sternal border which decreased in intensity with<br />

squatting and increased for 3-5 beats upon standing.<br />

PhysICaL EXaMINaTION:<br />

1. Physiologic murmur<br />

2. Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy<br />

3. Mitral regurgitation<br />

4. Ventricular septal defect<br />

5. Aortic stenosis<br />

TEsTs aNd rEsuLTs:<br />

ECG:<br />

-Sinus bradycardia with LVH and T wave inversions in V3 - V5<br />

Echocardiogram:<br />

-Normal LV function with EF of 65%.<br />

-Intraventricular septal wall 1.1cm in diameter, left ventricular posterior wall 1.4cm.<br />

Cardiac MRI:<br />

-Concentrically hypertrophied LV with normal cavity size and EF of 65%.<br />

-RV minimally hypertrophied with prominent trabeculations.<br />

-Septal thickness 1.4cm, LV free wall thickness 1.3cm<br />

-Anatomically normal valves.<br />

FINaL / WOrKING dIaGNOsIs:<br />

Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy<br />

TrEaTMENT aNd OuTCOMEs:<br />

1. Case was discussed between cardiology and sports medicine as the posterior wall<br />

thickness was in a diagnostic indeterminate zone.<br />

2. Imaging did not meet criteria for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; therefore athlete<br />

could not be disqualified from play.<br />

3. Recommended deconditioning for six months with follow up echocardiogram /<br />

cardiac MRI.<br />

4. Athlete decided to continue to play the season without incident.<br />

Thigh Pain--cyclist<br />

Brian C. Liem, Mark A. Harrast. University of Washington,<br />

Seattle, WA. (Sponsor: Stanley Herring, FACSM)<br />

(No relationships reported)<br />

hIsTOry: A 49 year old competitive cyclist presented with progressively worsening<br />

10 year history of right anterior thigh pain with exercise. She experienced a severe<br />

cramping sensation that would start in the anterior thigh and travel into the posterior<br />

thigh and calf with cycling and after several minutes. During more aggressive time<br />

trials or faster sprints her symptoms could present just after 30 seconds. She noted that<br />

when her heart rate reached 155 bpm symptoms would worsen and her leg would “shut<br />

down.” By slowing down and resting her pain improved. She had not been able to race<br />

at the level she wanted to for the prior 2 years specifically due to this right leg pain.<br />

She denied pain or weakness with regular ambulation.<br />

PhysICaL EXaMINaTION:<br />

Normal gait. Normal lumbar and hip range of motion without reproduction of<br />

symptoms. No tenderness to palpation over the groin or anterior thigh. Strength is<br />

5/5 lower extremities bilaterally, sensation is normal and reflexes are symmetric.<br />

Negative dural tension signs. FABER and FADIR maneuvers negative. Normal pedal<br />

and popliteal pulses. Femoral pulses intact in supine but with hip flexion right femoral<br />

pulse diminishes.<br />

PhysICaL EXaMINaTION:<br />

1. Hip Pathology<br />

2. Lumbar radiculopathy<br />

3. Vascular claudication<br />

4. Femoral neuropathy<br />

TEsT aNd rEsuLTs:<br />

1. Pelvis and Right femur X-rays: Normal. No fracture or osteoarthritis<br />

2. Right Ankle Brachial Indexes: 1.29 pre-exercise, 0.38 post exercise<br />

3. Duplex Doppler: Post exercise external iliac artery velocity 231 cm/sec, 50-99%<br />

stenosis.<br />

4. CT angiogram: No stenosis. Minimal narrowing right external iliac artery<br />

FINaL WOrKING dIaGNOsIs:<br />

Right External Iliac Artery Endofibrosis<br />

TrEaTMENT aNd OuTCOMEs:<br />

1. Given her desire to return to high level competition, referred patient for consultation<br />

with vascular surgery.<br />

2. Underwent saphenous vein patch angioplasty.<br />

3. Returned to cycling competition.<br />

Concerns Of The heart In a Professional Football hopeful<br />

Memorial Hospital, Baltimore, MD.<br />

(No relationships reported)<br />

hIsTOry: 22 year old AA male presents for a professional football free agent<br />

PPE . He denies any current complaints, but admits to history of a heart murmur.<br />

Awareness of his heart murmur resulted from a syncopal episode at the age of 16.<br />

While standing during a wedding, he felt dizzy, and fainted. This syncopal episode<br />

was thought to be vasovagal or neurocardiogenic in origin. Pediatric cardiology<br />

evaluation and echocardiogram in May of 2008 revealed mild MV prolapse and trivial,<br />

hemodynamically insignificant MV regurgitation. He was cleared to participate in<br />

college football and has had no cardiac symptoms throughout college. He currently<br />

denies any chest pain, palpitations, easy fatigability, or peripheral edema.<br />

PhysICaL EXaMINaTION:<br />

The player was noted to have normal blood pressure and heart rate. Cardiac<br />

examination revealed a 3/6 holosystolic murmur with a mid-systolic click, best heard<br />

at the base, but able to be heard at the apex and bilateral sternal borders. Murmur<br />

increased with squatting. Normal S1, S2. No diastolic murmurs. No JVD. No<br />

peripheral edema, 2+ distal pulses bilaterally. Pulmonary exam normal.<br />

PhysICaL EXaMINaTION:<br />

1) Persistent/Worsening Mitral Valve Prolapse/Regurgitation<br />

2) Mitral/Aortic Stenosis<br />

3) Atrial Myxoma<br />

4) HOCM<br />

TEsT aNd rEsuLTs:<br />

EKG: Sinus bradycardia, HR 56, LVH, normal QRS<br />

aP/Lateral CXr-- mild cardiomegaly, rounded cardiac appearance<br />

TTE-Normal LV function w/ estimated LV EF 60%. No obvious segmental wall<br />

motion abnormalities. Mild tricuspid regurgitation. Pulmonary artery pressure<br />

48mmHg consistent with pulmonary hypertension. 3+(Moderate) mitral regurgitation.<br />

Prominent prolapse of the posterior mitral valve. Normal intra-atrial and intraventricular<br />

septum.<br />
