description Coronary artery spasm after heart transplantation is a very rare complication. In one observational study and many anecdotal reports, most cases of coronary artery spasm occurred more than 1 year after surgery and had good outcomes.

This report presents a case of two cardiac arrests caused by coronary artery spasms within a short period of time after heart transplantation.
