摘要
Chest pain is common in adolescents and in young adults and usually not associated with a severe underlying cardiovascular disorder. However, in adults with congenital heart disease, residua or sequellae of previous interventions may provoke potential complications. Moreover, chest pain may be the first sign of a life-threatening condition. Basic knowledge is mandatory and will lead to the correct diagnosis and treatment. Data in literature, which focus on this issue, are scarce and motivated to summarize the experience of daily practice from the eye point of the clinician.
