Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection in the Third Trimester --
implications for investigation and delivery.
Abstract
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a rare condition which
occurs predominantly in the postpartum period in young women. A SCAD
whilst pregnant is very rare and poses significant risk to the mother
and unborn child, and with minimal data on SCAD antenatally, this case
highlights antepartum clinical considerations.
