Introduction Differences in pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and natural course of ST-elevation myocardial infarction in female patients due to either spontaneous dissection (SCAD-STEMI) or atherothrombotic occlusion (type 1 STEMI) have been discussed. vs. 1.8 ± 5.1%, p  = 0.002). vs. 1.8 ± 5.1%, p  = 0.002).

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an uncommon condition which is increasingly recognized as a cause of significant morbidity. SCAD can cause acute coronary syndrome and myocardial infarction (MI), as well as sudden cardiac death. The standard of care for patients with SCAD is rapidly evolving.

Background Contemporary management of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is still controversial. Results The systematic review included 13 observational studies evaluating 1,801 patients with SCAD.

Background Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) and Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) constitute two common causes of nonatherosclerotic acute cardiac syndrome particularly frequent in women. Results A total of 289 SCAD and 150 TTS patients were included; 89% were women. In-hospital events (43.3% vs. 7.1%, HR 5.3, vs. 9.6%, HR 4.5,

In the absence of these factors it is termed spontaneous coronary artery dissection ( SCAD ). At that time the literature suggested: SCAD was rare , Mostly related to pregnancy , Seen on angiography as a dissection flap , and Managed similarly to MI caused by CAD (ASA, BB, lytics/PCI ).
