Life-Threatening Coronary Vasospasm Treated by Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator: The Warning Signs

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2022
Coronary artery vasospasm is the sudden narrowing of an artery caused by rapid prolonged contraction. It reduces blood supply to the heart and can present with typical cardiac chest pain symptoms. Vasospasm can lead to fatal arrhythmic complications such

Feasibility, Safety, and Efficacy of Pulsed Field Ablation for Ventricular Arrhythmias: Insights From a Large Health System Registry in the United States

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is an emerging non‐thermal ablation modality with proven safety in atrial arrhythmia ablation. However, data on its performance for ventricular arrhythmias (VA) remain limited. Objective To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of PFA for complex VA in a multicenter real‐world US registry ...

A New Insight Into the Pathogenesis of Coronary Vasospasm [PDF]

Circulation Research, 2006
See related article, pages 682–689 To elucidate the control mechanisms of coronary vascular tone is one of the central interests in cardiac pathophysiology, because ischemic heart disease is one of the major causes of death in many countries. Although the coronary vascular tone is finally determined by the contractile state of smooth muscle, exo ...

Coronary Vasospasm Secondary to 5-Fluorouracil and Its Management: Case Report

Eurasian Journal of Medicine, 2019
Although rare, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) may lead to cardiotoxicity that presents with angina, elevated cardiac enzymes and electrocardiogram (ECG) changes. Coronary vasospasm related to 5-FU is a rare clinical entity in oncological practice and may be seen ...

Maximizing Neurovascular Outcomes of Facial Transplantation: A Comprehensive Review

Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 8, Page 965-979, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Facial transplantation is a division of reconstructive surgery which aims to improve the function and appearance of a face that has endured severe disfigurement. Currently, the face transplant procedure uses allogenic tissue, harvested from a brain‐dead donor, to replace damaged facial components.

Preclinical Serial Assessment of Virtual Physiology After Implantation of a Novel Endoluminal Resorbable Fibrillated Scaffold

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 108, Issue 4, Page 1206-1214, October 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The resorbable fibrillated scaffold (RFS) is a novel electrospun, polylactide‐based endoluminal scaffold developed for peripheral arterial applications. Its porous microfibre architecture is intended to support host cell infiltration and vascular restoration.

Sudden cardiac arrest due to coronary vasospasm in a patient with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome during brain surgery: a case report

JA Clinical Reports, 2019
Background Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome has the risk of sudden cardiac death. Without appropriate treatment, coronary vasospasm is also a potentially fatal condition due to ischemia-induced ventricular fibrillation.

Interaction of Operator−Patient Sex on Peri‐Procedural Treatments and Major Coronary Outcomes After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 108, Issue 4, Page 1520-1528, October 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Background There are limited data evaluating the association between operator−patient sex, and outcomes in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods We included 138,112 consecutive PCI procedures in patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in England and Wales, 2017−2020.

An unusual cause of ST elevation: Coronary vasospasm complicating acute myocarditis - A case report and review of the literature

Journal of Clinical and Preventive Cardiology, 2016
Coronary vasospasm and myocarditis are both recognized mimics of ST elevation myocardial infarction with normal coronary arteries. The occurrence of both pathologies in the same patient has rarely been described.
