Abstract
MI with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is an enigma that is being increasingly recognised with the frequent use of angiography following acute MI. To diagnose this condition, it is important to determine the multiple potential underlying mechanisms that may be responsible, many of which require different treatments. This review evaluates the contemporary diagnosis and management of MINOCA.
