Acute coronary syndrome due to multi-vessel coronary artery spasm in an Afghan refugee adolescent mimicking recurrent myocarditis.

Vasospastic angina is extremely uncommon for adolescents to experience chest discomfort, which is defined by transitory ST segment elevation or depression and angina symptoms that occur while at rest. It may result in potentially fatal conditions like myocardial infarction, ventricular fibrillation, or even sudden cardiac arrest. To aim of this article is to report a very rare case of a 17-year-old male Afghan refugee who was diagnosed with vasospastic angina after presenting with chest pain, and after receiving calcium channel blocker and nitrates for medical therapy, there were no angina attacks. Our case underlines the value of a thorough evaluation of adolescent's chest pain, the need to diagnose based on the symptoms, and the necessity of performing coronary angiography to rule out coronary causes when there is a high suspicion to a cardiac cause.
