Abstract

The article presents the final part of a three part report on the case of a 28-year-old postpartum woman with atypical right sided chest pain. A treadmill exercise was non-diagnostic, but stress echocardiography showed reduced systolic wall thickening. After a coronary angioplasty and drug treatment she had no further episodes of chest pain for six months. After that, another episode was examined through exercise stress echocardiograpgy and the results were normal.
