===Corrective therapy=== Since vasospasms can be caused by atherosclerosis and contribute to the severity of ischemia there are some surgical options which can restore circulation to these ischemic areas. Regarding coronary vasospasm, one surgical intervention, referred to as percutaneous coronary intervention or angioplasty, involves placing a [[stent]] at the site of stenosis in an artery and inflating the stent using a balloon catheter. Another surgical intervention is [[coronary artery bypass]].
