title: Nonatherosclerotic causes of coronary artery narrowing--Part III.
abstract: Approximately 5% of patients with acute myocardial infarction do not have atherosclerotic coronary artery disease but have other causes for their luminal narrowing. The third part of this three-part review of nonatherosclerotic causes of coronary narrowing focuses on coronary vasculitis, infectious diseases, Kawasaki's disease, metabolic disorders, metastatic disease, and substance abuse (cocaine).
