    Author: Bonnefoy E, Grollier G, Scanu P, Commeau P, Lognoné T, Bureau G, Valette B, Potier JC.
    Journal: Arch Mal Coeur Vaiss; 1992 Jan; 85(1):99-103. PubMed ID: 1550441.
    Abstract:
    The authors report a case of myocardial infarction complicating an exercise stress test performed 48 hours after successful angioplasty of a stenosed left anterior descending artery in a patient with unstable angina. Three similar cases have been previously reported. The probable mechanisms of coronary obstruction in this context are rupture of an atheromatous plaque, thrombosis and coronary spasm.
