This case report describes an atypical presentation of CAS in a 68-year-old white British male with cardiovascular risk factors. Coronary artery spasm (CAS), or Prinzmetal angina, is a recognised cause of myocardial ischaemia in non-obstructed coronary arteries which typically presents with anginal chest pain.

As a risk factor, it is responsible for more early deaths than any other risk factor 1. If we are going to make a dent in the risk factor that drives the greatest amount of premature mortality worldwide, we need to do a better job of identifying and managing high blood pressure. But here is the real problem.
