Rare case of inferior myocardial infarction from left main coronary artery spontaneous coronary artery dissection
The natural history and etiology of SCAD remain unclear. This was a young female with chest pain and inferior ST elevations. Cardiac catheterization revealed type 1 angiographic SCAD of the LMCA. This case was unusual in that the injury pattern of inferior posterior MI was from a LMCA SCAD.
