- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 48-year-old woman who was previously diagnosed with a ventricular septal defect and Eisenmenger syndrome. The woman is presented with a history of chest pain suggestive of angina pectoris, which was present both at rest and on exercise. Thallium scintigraphy showed a large and reversible area of ischaemia in the anterior wall.
