Overview
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection may occur as a result of predisposing factors (e.g., vasculopathy, connective tissue disorder, systemic inflammation) compounded by precipitating stressors (strenuous exercise, emotional stress, medications).
Causes
The exact etiology of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) remains elusive and appears to be multifactorial. It has been postulated that the phenotypic manifestation of SCAD may occur as a result of predisposing factors compounded by precipitating stressors.[1] Conditions that have been implicated as a potential cause include:
