Spontaneous coronary intramural hematoma (SCIH) is a rare but underdiagnosed condition, with dynamic evolution. We present a patient with acute chest pain and normal coronary angiogram undergoing work-up for myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries. Cardiac magnetic resonance revealed an ischemic pattern, and subsequent angiography revealed coronary occlusion by SCIH.

Abstract

Spontaneous coronary intramural hematoma (SCIH) is a rare but underdiagnosed condition, with dynamic evolution. We present a patient with acute chest pain and normal coronary angiogram undergoing work-up for myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries. Cardiac magnetic resonance revealed an ischemic pattern, and subsequent angiography revealed coronary occlusion by SCIH.
