Sažetak

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a form of acute coronary syndrome. Better diagnostic tools and
increased operator awareness have led to increase in the number of SCAD diagnosis. We present a case of a 62-year-old
female diagnosed with acute inferior ST elevated myocardial infarction with spontaneous right coronary artery dissection
in background, complicated by iatrogenic artery perforation. Owing to prompt coated stent deployment and successful
sealing of the vessel rupture and additional stent implantation to cover dissection, the patient was stable and fully recovered.
