The athlete's heart. Historical perspectives--solved and unsolved problems
Clinicians are coming back to Henschen's assessment of the athlete's heart as a physiologic and positive phenomenon. An athlete's heart may be affected by clinical conditions.

The athlete's heart therefore deserves the particular interest and care of the sports cardiologist.
