title: Prinzmetal's angina in a patient with angiosarcoma of the right cardiac chambers.
abstract: Variant (Prinzmetal's) angina pectoris is a clinical syndrome characterized by the presence of angina at rest, coinciding with a transient ST-segment elevation. This syndrome is often caused by vasospasm, either on a normal coronary artery or at the site of a coronary atherosclerotic stenosis. We describe a classic case of variant angina associated with an angiosarcoma of the right heart chambers.
