Vasospasm causes an abrupt and temporary occlusion in coronary arteries in patients with normal coronary arteries. Nonetheless, vasospasm of the left main coronary artery is unusual and can be spontaneous or iatrogenic. We herein report a very rare cause of temporary spasm of LMCA, which resulted in vasospastic angina and anginal chest pain. Intravascular ultrasonography should be considered as...

متن کاملLeft Main Coronary Artery Spasm in a Hyperthyroid Patient with Suspected Acute Coronary Syndrome
The left main coronary artery (LMCA) vasospasm is rare. We report a suspected acute coronary syndrome patient with hyperthyroidism who had LMCA vasospasm. Coronary angiogram showed 60% stenosis at LMCA. After administering nitroglycerin, re-angiography showed no significant stenosis. Then we evaluated LMCA lesion using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) showing no significant stenosis. We consider...
