Acute Coronary Syndrome Due to Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection in a Middle-Aged Man

True spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an extremely rare but important cause of acute coronary syndrome, with only about 200 cases reported in the literature. Diagnosis is often made at autopsy. Risk factors include oral contraceptive use, atherosclerotic disease and the peripartum period. SCAD should be considered when a healthy young patient presents with the onset of acute myocardial ischemic syndrome. A timely diagnosis and intervention are mandatory as SCAD can cause sudden death. We present a case of SCAD with an uncommon clinical presentation of acute coronary syndrome and without identifiable risk factors, and successfully treated with non-invasive (medical) therapy
