Abstract
Debate exists regarding the best terminology for common presentations of heart diseases caused by epicardial and/or microvascular coronary artery disease with or without myocardial ischaemia. In this Comment, we discuss the pros and cons of a new proposal to replace the vessel-based nomenclature of acute and chronic coronary syndromes with the myocardial-oriented nomenclature of acute and non-acute myocardial ischaemic syndromes.
