Abstract
SUMMARYA 27‐year‐old man developed acute myocardial infarction after intravenous amphetamine use. A coronary angiogram showed plaques in the mid‐portion of the left anterior descending artery which developed coronary artery spasm after administration of intracoronary ergonovine. The findings in this case suggest that these coronary artery plaques played a role in the endothelial dysfunction resulting from amphetamine use, and that induction of coronary arterial spasm was the likely mechanism of amphetamine‐related acute myocardial infarction.
