AbstractMyocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is diagnosed in almost equal to 5 to 6% of patients who present with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Causes of MINOCA are varied. Appropriate diagnosis and evaluation is important to uncover the correct cause and prescribe specific therapies to treat the underlying cause.Women with evidence of MINOCA are being increasingly recognized. The mechanisms underlying MINOCA, such as coronary microvascular spasm, represent a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge to medical fraternity, as there is neither a uniform nor comprehensive diagnostic strategy for accurate risk stratification, in the present scenario, for these patients.Here, we are reporting a case of MINOCA, which is rare and incompletely evaluated.
