Abstract
The article presents an overview of current and retrospective trends in the treatment of patients with coronary artery spasm during PCI and open heart surgery. The applied diagnostic and treatment algorithms do not always allow to solve the problem of spasm of the coronary arteries. Finding ways to reduce the frequency of coronary artery spasm is a priority. The review considers the frequency and factors of development of coronary artery spasm, the methods of prevention and treatment used.
Keywords: spasm of the coronary arteries, ischemic heart disease, STEMI.
