A coronary occlusion is the partial or complete obstruction of blood flow in a coronary artery. This condition may cause a heart attack. In some patients coronary occlusion causes only mild pain, tightness or vague discomfort which may be ignored; however, the myocardium, the muscle tissue of the heart, may be damaged.

In this study, non-obstructive CAD was defined as blood vessels that were less than 70 percent blocked. “Unlike obstructive CAD, which blocks blood flow, non-obstructive CAD may initially appear less threatening on angiography tests, but it appears to have significant risk for heart attack and death” said Thomas M.
Nonobstructive CAD differs from obstructive CAD in that people with nonobstructive CAD do not have as much plaque buildup in their arteries. With obstructive CAD, the plaque buildup is significant (usually greater than 70%) and can narrow or block the arteries.
Nonobstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) is atherosclerotic plaque that would not be expected to obstruct blood flow or result in anginal symptoms.
