We present a case of acute myocardial infarction in a 22 year old cocaine user. The absence of coronary artery stenotic lesions, as was seen in the coronary arteriography, and the absence of personal past cardiovascular or family history, suggest a cocaine-induced coronary spasm as responsible for the acute myocardial event.
