Daniel García-Arribas et al. Ann Thorac Surg. 2019 Oct.

Abstract

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection is associated with several conditions and vascular disorders. We describe the management of 2 patients presenting with spontaneous coronary artery dissection and unruptured ascending aortic aneurysms. Coexistence of spontaneous coronary artery dissection with extracoronary vascular disorders should be considered by clinicians.
