Özet

Coronary vasospasm is a frequent cause of chest pain. Multi-vessel coronary vasospasm increases the risk of severe ischemia, myocardial infarction, ventricular arrhythmia, and cardiogenic shock compared with single-vessel coronary vasospasm. The exact reasons for coronary artery vasospasm are uncertain. Several factors play a role in the development of coronary vasospasm. Here we present the case of a patient with multi-vessel coronary vasospasm, which occurred because of excessive inguinal pain.
