Abstract

Summary Variant angina, which is also referred to as prinzmetal or coronary vasospastic angina, is a clinical en- tity characterized by episodes of angina pectoris, usually at rest and often between midnight and early morning, in association with ST-segment elevation on the electrocardio- gram. Angina is usually caused by focal spasm of a major coronary artery resulting in a high-grade obstruction, and myocardial infarction may develop in some cases. We re- port a prinzmetal angina which caused ventricular fibrillation and cardiac arrest in an 18-week pregnant woman.

Özet

Prinzmetal anjina ya da vazospastik anjina olarak da adlandırılan variyant anjina, anjina pektoris ataklarıyla ve elektrokardiyografide ST segment yüksekliği ile karakterize, genellikle istirahatte ve sıklıkla gece yarısı veya sabah erken saatlerde ortaya çıkan klinik bir durumdur. Anjina çoğunlukla büyük koroner arterlerde yüksek derecede darlıkla sonuçlanan fokal bir spazm nedeniyle oluşur ve bazı hastalarda miyokart enfarktüsü gelişebilir. Bu yazıda, 18 haftalık gebe bir hastada ventrikül fibrilasyonu ve kalp durmasına sebep olmuş Prinzmetal anjina olgusu sunuldu.
