Abstract:
A 56-year-old man, with no particular past history, sustained two cardio-circulatory arrests preceded by constrictive chest pain. Coronary arteriography was normal during etiological investigations. The methylergometrine maleate (Méthergin (tm)) test enabled the diagnosis of severe spastic angina and guided appropriate management of this patient.
