title: The disappearing coronary stenosis: reemphasizing the importance of excluding coronary vasospasm before coronary intervention.
abstract: We describe a case of resting angina with multiple angiographic stenoses that were highly suitable for stenting. These classic lesions resolved after intracoronary nitroglycerin while positioning a stent. This case reemphasizes the need to exclude vasospasm prior to any interventional coronary procedure.
