Sumario:The coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has been a challenge for medicine over the last year. Although a recent entity, the exhaustive study it has undergone has revealed frequent complications, such as thrombotic and embolic phenomena. Other complications such as acute coronary syndrome or coronary vasospasm have been described, but are much less frequent. The latter has a pathophysiology that is not fully known, along with significant morbidity and mortality, so its early detection and management is important. We present the case of a 77-year-old man who presented coronary spasm of the right coronary artery associated with severe SARS-CoV-2 infection.
