Summary

In summary, SCAD can be elusive on coronary angiography and clinicians should become more cognisant of non-pathognomonic angiographic SCAD variants and consider intracoronary imaging to improve diagnosis. Conservative management is typically recommended unless patients have ongoing ischaemia, haemodynamic instability or left main involvement. Long-term cardiovascular follow-up is important since recurrent events frequently occur post-SCAD.
