Evidence for coronary spasm during flushing in the carcinoid syndrome.

K G Petersen, W R Seemann, R Plagwitz, L Kerp.   

Abstract

In this report we present the history of a patient with symptomatic carcinoid syndrome. During flushing he suffered from variant angina. The observation of coronary spasm due to excess 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is discussed with regard to the discharge of 5-HT from clotting platelets in the coronary arteries.
