Coronary-artery dissections account for less than 1% of acute myocardial infarctions, occur most commonly in women and most often between the ages of 47 and 53 years, may be associated with an underlying disorder such as fibromuscular dysplasia and other noncoronary arterial abnormalities, and are usually treated medically.
