Abstract
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) poses a significant challenge in young female patients presenting with acute coronary syndromes. We report a case of a 43-year-old female presenting with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome, diagnosed with SCAD. Utilizing a Suoh 0.3 guidewire and microcatheter, successful percutaneous intervention was achieved. Notably, once a position in the true lumen was established, the use of a dual-lumen microcatheter facilitated the identification of the main branch of the true lumen through side-port contrast injection and enabled safe delivery of a second wire within it. This highlights the importance of tailored interventions and innovative tools in managing SCAD effectively.
