AIMS: Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) can cause angina in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). We studied the frequency and angiographic characteristics of CMD in symptomatic patients with suspected stable CAD and identified CMD as diffusely abnormal coronary vasodilator capacity by positron emission tomography (PET) perfusion imaging.
METHODS AND RESULTS: We recruited prospectively 189 patients with intermediate pre-test probability of CAD who underwent coronary computed tomography angiography and quantitative 15O-water PET perfusion imaging followed by invasive coronary angiography, and assessment of fractional flow reserve when feasible. Prevalence of obstructive epicardial CAD was 37%. Absolute myocardial blood flow was diffusely reduced (<2.4 mL/g/min) within the left ventricle during adenosine stress in 32 (17%) patients. In 15 (8%) patients, this was explained by three-vessel obstructive CAD, whereas the remaining 17 (9%) were diagnosed with CMD. Of these, 2 (1% of all patients) had no coronary atherosclerosis, 5 (3% of all patients) had non-obstructive atherosclerosis, and in 10 (5% of all patients) CMD co-existed with obstructive CAD. Atypical angina or non-anginal chest pain (53%) was the most common presentation. Older age and male sex were associated with CMD, but other risk factors of CAD were equally common in patients with or without CMD.
CONCLUSION: Coronary microvascular dysfunction exists in 9% of symptomatic stable patients with suspected CAD. However, the prevalence of microvascular dysfunction without any coronary atherosclerosis is low (1%) in this population.
