Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection Accompanied with Antiphospholipid Syndrome and Leukemia.
International Heart Journal 2018 July 32

This young SCAD patient was initially diagnosed of acute myocardial infarction (AMI); however, except for 6 pack-years of smoking, there were no risk factors or family history of coronary artery disease. Subsequently, we screened other clinical status like autoimmune diseases and finally found APS. In general, APS was associated with thromboembolism events, not coronary artery dissection. Our case indicated that SCAD could be a rare manifestation of APS which should draw our attention. In addition, our bail-out therapy acquired the expected effect.
