Other forms of angina pectoris - what does this mean
Other forms of angina pectoris occur when the heart does not receive enough oxygen due to narrowed or blocked coronary arteries, resulting in chest pain or discomfort. this can be caused by spasms of the coronary arteries, reduced blood flow to the heart muscle, or an imbalance between the heart's oxygen supply and demand.
What happens during the disease - other forms of angina pectoris
Other forms of angina pectoris are caused by a decrease in oxygen supply to the heart muscle due to a narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries. this can be due to a buildup of cholesterol and fatty deposits in the arteries (atherosclerosis), a spasm of the coronary arteries, or a decrease in coronary artery blood flow due to a heart attack or other cardiovascular event. in some cases, the cause of other forms of angina pectoris is unknown.
