Case Report
The article highlights the clinical presentations, diagnostic challenges, and management options for spontaneous coronary artery dissection through a case series.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an increasingly recognized cause of acute coronary syndrome in young patients. No clear factors exist to predict the natural history of the disease and the prognosis of the condition. Furthermore, current management practice of SCAD is based mainly on retrospective data and case series and clear management guidelines are lacking. In this article, we present a series of cases of patients with SCAD and we will discuss the different clinical presentations, the diagnostic approaches and the options of management of this cohort of patients. Our aim is to outline the challenges of diagnosis and management of this interesting and serious pathology.
