    Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD) is more prevalent in women, especially during the peripartum period, with a global prevalence of 0.07% to 1.1%.

  • 2

    SCAD can lead to serious complications, including acute coronary syndrome, ventricular arrhythmias, and, in rare cases, sudden cardiac death.

  • 3

    The study aims to identify predictors of unplanned revascularization in SCAD patients to improve risk stratification and treatment strategies.

  • 4

    A total of 86 cases of SCAD were identified through a retrospective review of coronary angiography reports from 2014 to 2019.

  • 5

    The primary endpoints of the study included major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and unplanned revascularization during follow-up.
