Coronary Microvascular Angina: A State-of-the-Art Review
Up to 60–70% of patients, undergoing invasive coronary angiography due to angina and demonstrable myocardial ischemia with provocative tests, do not have any obstructive coronary disease. Coronary microvascular angina due to a dysfunction of the coronary

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction, Microvascular Angina, and Treatment Strategies
Angina without coronary artery disease (CAD) has substantial morbidity and is present in 10% to 30% of patients undergoing angiography. Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is present in 50% to 65% of these patients. The optimal treatment of this cohort is undefined.

Non-invasive assessment of microvascular dysfunction in patients with microvascular angina [PDF]
We aimed to evaluate the microvascular function in patients with microvascular angina (MVA) by assessing 1) the endothelial glycocalyx barrier properties using sublingual microscopy, and 2) the myocardial perfusion reserve using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging.Sublingual microscopy was performed in 13 MVA patients (angina pectoris, ST ...

With the widespread clinical use of angiography in the 70s of the last century, it became apparent that a sizeable proportion of patients referred for anginal symptoms had angiographically normal coronary arteries. These findings stimulated a hot debate among clinicians and scientists on the mechanisms and significance of this condition that seemed to ...
