Prinzmetal's angina, a variant of angina pectoris, involves coronary artery spasms often occurring at rest. Hyperventilation can provoke these spasms, as seen in a patient with right coronary artery spasms.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Vascular Medicine

Background:

  • Prinzmetal's angina is a variant of angina pectoris characterized by coronary artery spasms.
  • Symptoms typically manifest at rest, particularly in the early morning hours.

Observation:

  • A case study details a 53-year-old patient experiencing Prinzmetal's angina.
  • Coronary artery spasms were successfully evoked by hyperventilation provocation.

Findings:

  • Hyperventilation can induce coronary artery vasoconstriction, triggering spasms.
  • The patient exhibited spasms specifically in the right coronary artery.

Implications:

  • This case highlights hyperventilation as a useful diagnostic tool for Prinzmetal's angina.
  • Potential pathogenetic mechanisms include endothelial dysfunction and hypersensitivity to vasoconstrictors.
