Objective. The presence of coronary lesions of less than 50% in patients with myocardial ischaemia is a common diagnosis in cardiac catheterisation laboratories. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical course of patients with myocardial ischaemia in the absence of obstructive coronary lesions. Materials and methods. A prospective analytical study was conducted in 110 patients of both sexes with documented myocardial ischaemia and coronary lesions of less than 50% on coronary angiography.
