Abstract
Two young men with a history of cocaine addiction were admitted to our Coronary Unit because of acute myocardial infarction, and treated with thrombolytic agents. The involved coronary artery was found to be totally occluded in both of them. We suggest that spasm may constitute one of the primary events in these patients.
