Rituximab-Induced Coronary Vasospasm [PDF]
Rituximab has improved the treatment of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas. While it is generally well tolerated, serious adverse effects including infusion reactions with hemodynamic compromise and cardiac arrhythmias or ischemia are possible. We report a case of coronary vasospasm occurring during a rituximab infusion in a patient with minimal tumour ...

Mechanisms responsible for coronary vasospasm
Studies have been conducted on isolated segments of the left circumflex coronary artery of the dog to gain information on the mechanism or mechanisms of vasospasm. Coronary arteries contain both postjunctional alpha 1- and beta 1-adrenoceptors, and both are accessible to norepinephrine released from the sympathetic nerves.

Postpartum Coronary Vasospasm with Literature Review [PDF]
Acute myocardial infarction during pregnancy or the postpartum period is rare. We report a case of a 39-year-old postpartum woman who developed non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction due to severe diffuse coronary vasospasm. To our knowledge, this is the first case of angiographically evidenced coronary vasospasm, in a postpartum woman, with resistance
