Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a rare cause of coronary obstruction, usually affecting women in the childbearing age. Pathogenetic mechanisms are elusive, and optimal treatment is not established. We describe a case of spontaneous coronary artery dissection that was successfully treated by coronary stenting. The published literature regarding the outcome of this modality of treatment in patients with SCAD is reviewed. A patient with spontaneous coronary artery dissection treated by stenting is described along with a review of the published literature regarding treatment of similar patients.
