Abstract

We discuss an unusual case of a patient who initially presented with apparent commotio cordis but returned several months later with spontaneous wide complex tachycardia. This case highlights the importance of investigation of survivors of commotio cordis, especially if atypical, to determine if there is underlying cardiac disease.
