Overview

The first case of spontaneous coronary artery dissection was described by Pretty in 1931. In the post-morterm examination, heart muscle and valve appeared normal, and there was extensive hemorrhage between aorta and pulmonary artery secondary to coronary artery rupture presumably during the sudden and violent retching attack.
