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.
Quick Facts. A coronary artery spasm usually occurs in an artery narrowed by fatty deposits (plaque). The spasm usually occurs very close to the blockage. But spasm can also occur in a normal coronary artery. When a coronary artery spasm occurs, less blood flows to your heart muscle. This causes chest pain (angina) that can feel like heaviness, tightness, burning, and pressure or squeezing under your breastbone. A coronary artery spasm usually occurs at rest or during sleep.
