Spontaneous coronary artery dissection is a rare cause of myocardial ischaemia. Typically it affects young, apparently healthy females, and may result in significant myocardial loss or even death. Due to the rarity of the condition there are no clear guidelines for its management. We describe two cases of spontaneous coronary artery dissection and report successful coronary stenting of the affected artery in one patient. We believe that this interventional technique may be the treatment of choice in selected patients with this condition.
自发性冠状动脉夹层是心肌缺血的一种罕见病因。通常它影响年轻、看似健康的女性，可能导致严重的心肌损伤甚至死亡。由于这种疾病罕见，对于其治疗尚无明确的指南。我们描述了两例自发性冠状动脉夹层病例，并报告了其中一名患者对患动脉成功进行冠状动脉支架置入术的情况。我们认为，这种介入技术可能是部分患有该疾病患者的首选治疗方法。
