Abstract

Report of one case of Prinzmetal variant of angina pectoris with a typical clinical and electrocardiographic picture in a man aged 87. Severe arrhythmias resulted in death of the patient. On autopsy a moderate narrowing of the anterior interventricular artery was demonstrated. In that relation, a review of the literature on the anatomical lesions and coronary arteriographic data of Prinzmetal angina was performed. It showed that in some cases Prinzmetal angina could be observed while the coronary artery lesions were very moderate. The pathogenesis of these facts was discussed.
