Abstract
Coronary angiography (CAG) with fractional flow reserve is the gold standard method for assessing ischemic heart disease (IHD). However, it is expensive, invasive, and is associated with risks of significant complications. Therefore, the exercise stress test (EST) has been commonly used in patients with a low or intermediate risk of developing IHD . However, EST can be associated with serious complications, as described in this case.
