摘要
A case of 71-year-old man with variant angina treated by intracoronary stent was reported. Thepatient suffered from rest chest pain characterized by transient ST-segment elevation involving inferior leads.He had been frsequently attacked by syncope due to transient second degree or complete atrioventricular blockand ventricular tachycardia. Coronary arteriography revealed significant spasm in the midportion of the rightcoronary artery, which occurred at a mild fixed coronary obstructive lesion. The patient still had angina accompanied by syncope in hospital despite maximal drug therapy, so an intracoronary stent was implanted tothe patient. The patient was free of angina during a follow-up of 8 months thereafter.
