Abstract

Recently Antonio Ruggiero et al. [1] published an interesting case of a young 39-year-old woman with acute chest pain following a quarrel with her mother, mimicking Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TT), due to spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) treated with three bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) implantation.
