Case Presentation : A 65-year-old male presents for evaluation of chest pain. He describes substernal chest pressure that comes on when he plays doubles tennis or walks up a hill on the golf course. His discomfort is associated with dyspnea and is relieved within a few minutes by rest. On one occasion, a golfing partner gave him one of his sublingual nitroglycerin tablets. This brought prompt relief of the discomfort. He denies any chest pain at rest or at night. He has a history of hypertension, for which he is taking a diuretic. On a routine physical examination last year, his cholesterol was 240, with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol of 150. He is trying to follow a low-fat diet and lose weight to reduce this.

Both his mother and father lived into their late eighties and died of cancer. He is an only child.

On physical examination, his blood pressure is 145/95 mm Hg. His heart rate is 72 beats per minute and regular. His cardiac examination is normal. His resting ECG is normal.

The patient undergoes a treadmill exercise test. He completes 6 minutes of exercise according to a Bruce protocol. He stops because of fatigue but does note some mild chest pressure at peak exercise. Peak exercise heart rate is 135 beats per minute, and the peak exercise blood pressure is 190/100 mm Hg. Exercise electrocardiography shows 0.5 mm of up-sloping ST depression measured 80 seconds after the J point at peak exercise.

To better define the patient’s diagnosis and prognosis, he then undergoes exercise myocardial perfusion imaging with sestamibi. He again …
