Abstract

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection is a rare cause of myocardial infarction in young, otherwise healthy people. We present a case report of a 37-year-old woman, without cardiovascular risk factors, who survived a major acute myocardial infarction due to multi-vessel spontaneous coronary artery dissection which was complicated by cardiogenic shock in the third week postpartum. She fully recovered with medical therapy in combination with angioplasty. <
