title: [Spontaneous dissection of 2 coronary branches in a young man. Report of a clinical case].
abstract: Spontaneous coronary dissection is responsible for acute coronary syndromes particularly in females during and in the peri-partum period. It rarely occurs in patients without atherosclerotic coronary plaques. We report a particular clinical course of a 39-year-old patient with spontaneous dissection of two coronary arteries. His clinical course suggested only medical treatment, with aspirin, beta-blockers and ACE-inhibitors. At 3 months of follow-up the patient is free of symptoms.
