ALARCON-SOTELO, A; ORTEGA-CHAVARRIA, MJ; DIAZ-GREENE, E  e  RODRIGUEZ-WEBER, F. Spontaneous coronary dissection in the mediate surgical puerperium. Med. interna Méx. [online]. 2018, vol.34, n.1, pp.127-135. ISSN 0186-4866.  https://doi.org/10.24245/mim.v34i1.1431.

Spontaneous coronary dissection or primary coronary dissection is an underdiagnosed condition, given the variable characteristics of clinical presentation including precordial pain, acute coronary syndrome, ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death. It frequently affects women between the ages of 30 and 40, and frequently affects pregnant or postpartum women, who are also characterized by a lack of cardiovascular risk factors. The following article discusses the case of a 43-year-old woman in whom a diagnosis of spontaneous coronary dissection was established, and we performed a brief review of the topic.
