Purpose: To present an uncommon cause of chest pain in an athlete. Case summary: A 17-year-old black man suffered recurrent episodes of chest pain due to pericarditis. Based on presentation and serology, he was diagnosed as having unspecified connective tissue disease. Discussion: Rheumatologic disease will often manifest over a period of time. Diagnosis and treatment is often elusive. Relevance: Rheumatologic disorders should be included in the differential diagnosis of chest pain in athletes. Verf.-Referat
