Algorithm for the Angiographic Diagnosis and Confirmation of Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection

Presence of features that raise a high clinical index of suspicion for SCAD? (click for details) ❑  Myocardial infarction in young women (especially age ≤50) ❑  Absence of traditional cardiovascular risk factors ❑  Little or no evidence of typical atherosclerotic lesions in coronary arteries ❑  Peripartum state ❑  History of fibromuscular dysplasia ❑  History of relevant connective tissue disorder or systemic inflammatory condition     ❑  Marfan's syndrome     ❑  Ehlers-Danlos syndrome Type 4     ❑  Loeys-Dietz syndrome     ❑  Cystic medial necrosis     ❑  Systemic lupus erythematosus     ❑  Crohn's disease     ❑  Ulcerative colitis     ❑  Polyarteritis nodosa     ❑  Sarcoidosis     ❑  Churg-Strauss syndrome     ❑  Wegener's granulomatosis     ❑  Rheumatoid arthritis     ❑  Giant cell arteritis

Perform early coronary angiography

Presence of type 1 SCAD lesion characteristics? (click for details) ❑  Pathognomonic appearance of contrast dye staining of arterial wall ❑  Multiple radiolucent lumens ❑  ±Dye hang-up or slow contrast clearing from the lumen
