Coronary artery spasm is a well-established causative mechanism for resting chest pain in Prinzmetal's variant angina and may play a significant role in broader ischemic heart disease.
This review highlights the pathophysiological role of coronary artery spasm in myocardial ischemia and outlines effective pharmacological management strategies.

May warrant spasm evaluation in INOCA; leaves open autonomic modulation extent in modern cohorts.
Rouba Chahine (1979) conducted a review in Myocardial ischemia and coronary artery spasm. Coronary artery spasm was evaluated. Coronary artery spasm is a well-established causative mechanism for resting chest pain in Prinzmetal's variant angina and may play a significant role in broader ischemic heart disease.
