Recurrent polymorphic ventricular tachycardia without chest pain: an unusual presentation of focal coronary artery spasm

The British Journal of Cardiology

Coronary angiography identified moderate stenosis of the right coronary artery (RCA), without significant flow restriction by invasive pressure wire interrogation. This case emphasises the importance of recognising plaque-associated CAS as a potential trigger for life-threatening arrhythmias, even in the absence of chest pain.
