Abstract

Myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is an intriguing clinical entity that is being increasingly recognized with the more common use of coronary angiography during acute myocardial infarction. This review systematically addresses the contemporary understanding of MINOCA, including, (1) what are the diagnostic criteria, (2) when the diagnosis should be considered, (3) who is at risk, (4) why this new syndrome should be diagnosed, (5) how these patients should be managed, and (6) where to next?.
