    Notes: Abstract A unique case of ‘variant’ angina pectoris has been observed in a patient with normal coronary arteries and typical chest pain appearing spontaneously at rest, and repeatedly provoked by ergonovine maleate (0.1 mg iv) associated with large transmural perfusion defects on 201Tl-imaging (after ergonovine) and a marked increase in T wave voltage despite no demonstrable spasm of a major coronary artery after the same doses of ergonovine. While saline solution could not provoke chest pain and treatment with a beta-blocking agent increased the frequency of ischemic attacks, a calcium antagonist therapy reduced and eventually eliminated the attacks. Thus, this case provides evidence for yet another aspect of a ‘variant’ form of angina pectoris: small vessel coronary artery spasm.

    Notes: Summary Reported are two cases of patients with central nervous system systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with clinical features of a myelopathy confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In one case, further evaluation including Single Photon Emission Computerized Tomography (SPECT) and neuropsychological testing, indicated higher cortical deficits which improved after treatment with monthly pulse intravenous cyclophosphamide. Subsequent cessation of cyclophosphamide was associated with further progression of the neurological disease in this patient.
