Coronary artery disease. The most common underlying cause of heart attack is atherosclerosis, a condition in which a fatty substance called plaque builds up on the inside walls of blood vessels. When this occurs in the coronary arteries, it's known as coronary artery disease (CAD).
Another cause of a heart attack is a spasm of a coronary artery that shuts down blood flow to part of the heart muscle. Use of tobacco and of illicit drugs, such as cocaine, can cause a life-threatening spasm. A heart attack can also occur due to a tear in the heart artery (spontaneous coronary artery dissection).nother cause of a heart attack is a spasm of a coronary artery that shuts down blood flow to part of the heart muscle.
