[[Sudden cardiac arrest]]  may be caused by [[coronary artery]] abnormality such as coronary [[atherosclerosis]], acute [[MI]], [[coronary artery embolism]], [[coronary arteritis]]
[[Sudden cardiac arrest]] ([[SCA]]) may be caused by underlying [[cardiac]] abnormality including [[coronary artery]] abnormality , [[hypertrophy]] of [[myocardium]], [[myocardial disease]], [[valvular heart disease]], [[congenital heart disease]], abnormality in [[conducting system]] and electrical instability.

Overview

Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) may be caused by underlying cardiac abnormality including coronary artery abnormality , hypertrophy of myocardium, myocardial disease, valvular heart disease, congenital heart disease, abnormality in conducting system and electrical instability. The type of cardiac disease that is associated with sudden cardiac death (SCD) depends on the age of the individual [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8].
