  • Title: Coronary artery catheter-induced spasm.
    Author: Lafia P, Dincer B.
    Journal: Cathet Cardiovasc Diagn; 1982; 8(6):607-10. PubMed ID: 7151157.
    Abstract:
    A patient developed a lesion in the proximal and mid right coronary artery during cardiac catheterization. Following the administration of nitroglycerin, repeat right coronary angiography showed a normal right coronary artery. Therefore, distal lesions associated with catheter-induced spasm in the same coronary artery should not always be considered "fixed" lesions; but rather, they may be due to spasm.
