Left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy is the most common adaptation to intense training, and ECG can detect such early signs. Some difficulty is experienced to discriminate between athlete’s heart and pathological hypertrophy, especially in young athletes with negative T-waves, because these can be due to juvenile-patterns. In this study, we report LV morphofunctional characteristics in adolescent athletes presenting with resting ST-T segment anomalies on ECG.

Abstract
Left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy is the most common adaptation to intense training, and ECG can detect such early signs. Some difficulty is experienced to discriminate between athlete’s heart and pathological hypertrophy, especially in young athletes with negative T-waves, because these can be due to juvenile-patterns. In this study, we report LV morphofunctional characteristics in adolescent athletes presenting with resting ST-T segment anomalies on ECG.File in questo prodotto:
