Abstract
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection is a rare incident occurring usually in young patients, predominantly in females. It is usually fatal and found postmortem. We present the case of a middle aged man with spontaneous left anterior descending coronary artery dissection found angiographically which caused an anterior wall myocardial infarction. We also briefly review the relevant literature.
