It is well known that women are more likely to present with ischemic heart disease at an advanced age with more comorbidities when compared to male counterparts. Despite correction of risk factors, women experience worse outcomes, even in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease. A review of the literature highlights the importance of a thoughtful approach to medical therapy and revascularization. While most recommendations applied to women are derived mostly from male data, further study of sex-specific differences may lead to approaches which can ultimately reduce disparities for the treatment of ischemic heart disease in women.
