Multi-vessel intractable coronary spasm development in a patient with aborted sudden cardiac death: a case study with intravascular ultrasound findings [PDF]
Coronary spasm generally occurs in patients with minimal atherosclerotic plaque lesion, and it has a rather favorable prognosis. However, in some cases, coronary spasm may induce myocardial infarction and even sudden cardiac death (SCD).
