Why the study?
SCAD is an increasingly recognized cause of acute myocardial infarction, but presentations without acute coronary syndrome remain atypical.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) can present atypically without acute coronary syndrome, requiring clinical awareness of alternative presentations.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an increasingly recognized cause of acute myocardial infarction. We examine 4 atypical presentations of SCAD. These cases highlight treatment course and outcomes for patients with SCAD who do not present with acute coronary syndrome.
