When FFR is larger than 0.80, a PCI is not justified. Transient microvascular dysfunction may, however, be associated with impaired hyperemia and falsely negative FFR. This case also emphasizes the dynamic nature of microvascular disease, and provides an example of both “typical” syndrome X and “less conventional” syndrome slow flow associated with increased peripheral resistances (see Chap. 35).
