Abstract
Spontaneous and simultaneous multivessel coronary artery spasm may present with multisite myocardial ischemia, atrioventricular block, acute lung edema, cardiogenic shock, or ventricular fibrillation. In a case of syncope caused by vasospasm,the underlying mechanism may be complex, such as atrioventricular block and/or ventricular arrhythmia. Dual implantablecardioverter defibrillator (ICD) placement should be considered along with optimal medical treatment. This report is a description of a 57-year-old male patient who was admitted to the hospital with chest pain followed by loss of consciousness.As the patient had bradycardia, a diffuse spasm, and life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia during ischemic episodes, a dualICD device was implanted. ICD treatment may be a good option in cases with a diffuse spasm that is hard to control withmedical treatment due to the risk of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia.
