ABSTRACT

Homem de 43 anos de idade procurou o ambulatório com queixa de dor precordial em queimação, iniciada há cinco anos, aos médios esforços. Não apresentava fatores de risco para doença arterial coronariana. O eletrocardiograma apresentou ondas T negativas e com amplitude superior a 10 mm. A cintilografia miocárdica evidenciou no mapa polar o sinal “solar polar map”. A ressonância magnética cardíaca revelou importante hipertrofia do ventrículo esquerdo com predomínio do segmento apical, com maior espessura parietal de 22 mm e realce tardio mostrando exuberante captação tardia do contraste com distribuição mesocárdica difusa, confirmando a hipótese de doença de Yamaguchi.


A 43 year-old man with no risk factors for coronary artery disease visited the out-patient clinic complaining of burning chest pain that began five years ago with average effort. The electrocardiogram showed negative T waves wider than 10mm. Myocardial scintigraphy showed the ‘solar polar’ sign in the polar map. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging disclosed significant left ventricular hypertrophy with predominance of the apical segment with greater wall thickness of 22mm and delayed enhancement, showing ample delayed contrast uptake with diffuse mesocardial distribution, confirming the hypothesis of Yamaguchi disease.
