Interventional cardiologists sometimes over-diagnose Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD) in young female patients despite clinical or angiographic findings that suggest ongoing diagnostic uncertainty or an alternative diagnosis. This case series highlights that unresolved symptoms and recurrent events can result when such patients have premature Coronary Atherosclerotic Disease (CAD) that is mislabeled as SCAD and not treated.
