Abstract
A 51 year-old White woman with angina pectoris and nonatheromatous cor onary artery disease is presented. Cardiac catheterization demonstrated a "slow-flow phenomenon" in the left coronary artery accompanied by severe angina pectoris and anterolateral ST-segment elevation and culminating in an acute nontransmural myocardial infarction. At repeat coronary arteriography, ergonovine maleate provocation proved negative.This publication has 25 references indexed in Scilit:
