Abstract
We continue with the series of clinical cases in Pediatric Cardiology reviewing the frequent reasons for consultation in Primary Care Pediatrics, presented in a brief and practical way and trying to show the usefulness of the electrocardiogram, a diagnostic method available in Primary Care. In this issue we present the case of a 15-year-old adolescent who attended a cardiology consultation for evaluation of a heart murmur. We discuss the electrocardiographic and echographic findings and the orientation in the management of this patient.
