title: Coronary artery spasm in a denervated orthotopic transplanted human heart.
abstract: A case of catheter-induced spasm in a 40-year-old male one year after orthotopic cardiac transplantation is presented. The fact that spasm can occur in this setting of total cardiac denervation demonstrates that other factors can play an important part in modifying the status of coronary artery patency.
