Culprit-only stenting may fail to prevent propagation in postpartum multivessel SCAD; leaves open optimal strategy for prospective study.
Case Report (n=1)
In cases of multivessel spontaneous coronary artery dissection with acute myocardial infarction, treating only the culprit vessel with a drug-eluting stent may not prevent dissection propagation in other vessels.
Azzarelli et al. (2009) conducted a case report in Multivessel spontaneous coronary artery dissection and acute myocardial infarction (n=1). Drug-eluting stenting was evaluated on Propagation of dissection. Drug-eluting stenting of only the culprit vessel did not prevent dissection propagation in a postpartum woman with multivessel spontaneous coronary artery dissection.
