Overview

Epidemiology and Demographics

Prevalence

The true prevalence of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) remains unknown. The prevalence of SCAD is estimated at 0.2% in the whole population, 8.7% in women <50 years with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and 10.8% in women <50 years with ST elevation-ACS.[1]

Incidence

The annual incidence of SCAD is estimated at 0.26 per 100,000 persons (0.33 in women and 0.18 in men), corresponding to 800 new cases of SCAD per year in the United States.[2] Retrospective angiographic registries have reported SCAD detection in approximately 0.1 to 1.1% of all coronary angiograms performed.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]

Case Fatality Rate

The case fatality rate of SCAD is relatively low compared with other causes of ACS, with an estimated in-hospital mortality rate of 0 to 4%.[1]

Age

The prevalence of SCAD decreases with age, and is estimated at 7.6%, 4.0%, 2.1%, and 1.2% in women below the age of 40, 50, 60, and 70, respectively.[1]

Gender

SCAD has a strong predilection for young women with no or minimal traditional cardiovascular risk factors. It has been reported that SCAD is the most common non-atherosclerotic coronary artery disease in women <50 years of age and accounts for 24% of myocardial infarctions.[11] The risk of SCAD has been associated with pregnancy as well as the use of oral contraceptives.[12][13][14] Possible mechanisms underlying increased prevalence of SCAD in this population include structural alterations in the arterial wall secondary to hormonal change, increased shear stress during labor, fragmentation of reticulin fibers, loosening of ground substance, and hypertrophy of smooth muscle.[15]
