Abstract: Surgical cases for myocardial ischemia due to spontaneous coronary artery dissection have rarely been reported. We describe a young male who had a myocardial infarction with left ventricular aneurysm due to spontaneous left anterior descending coronary artery dissection. He was successfully treated with Dor's left ventriculoplasty without coronary artery revascularization. The Dor procedure was a simple and effective treatment. To our knowledge, this is the first report in which the Dor procedure was used to t… Show more

“…SCAD treatment is very difficult and presents a clinical challenge.

However, the absence of literature data on the overall outcomes makes it difficult to select the appropriate method of treatment; therefore, management of such cases is highly controversial.…”
