Involvement of the coronary artery is very rare but may cause life-threatening spontaneous dissection. Because it is rare, this disease may go unrecognized. A unique angiographic finding of non-coronary arteries can make an early diagnosis, an...

متن کاملSpontaneous coronary artery dissection: prevalence of predisposing conditions including fibromuscular dysplasia in a tertiary center cohort.
OBJECTIVES We sought to evaluate the prevalence of fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) and other predisposing conditions among spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) patients. BACKGROUND Spontaneous coronary artery dissection is considered rare. However, we observed many young women with SCAD and concomitant FMD. METHODS Spontaneous coronary artery dissection patients were identified prosp...
متن کاملPostpartum Sudden Cardiac Death After Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection in a Patient With Fibromuscular Dysplasia
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a rare entity that can cause acute myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death (SCD) which often goes unrecognized. We report a case of SCAD in a young postpartum female who presented with sudden cardiac arrest. The patient was managed medically and found to have fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD). After being stabilized in the critical care unit, ...
