Coronary artery spasm (CAS) is a temporary discomfort or pain that is caused by a. temporary spasm (constriction) in one or more of your coronary arteries (the arteries. that supply oxygen and nutrients to your heart). It is sometimes called âPrinzmetal. anginaâ and usually happens in people aged 50 years or younger.
The coronary arteries supply blood and oxygen to the heart. Coronary artery spasm is a brief, sudden narrowing of one of these arteries. The spasm often occurs in coronary arteries that have not become hardened due to plaque buildup. However, it also can occur in arteries with plaque buildup. These spasms are due to a squeezing of muscles in the artery wall. They most often occur in just one area of the artery. The coronary artery may appear normal during testing, but it does not function normally. About 2% of people with angina (chest pain and pressure) have coronary artery spasm.
