In this article, the first 447 patients enrolled in a national FMD registry from 9 US sites were reviewed for clinical features, presenting symptoms, and vascular events, and the most common presenting symptoms of the disease were hypertension, headache, and pulsatile tinnitus.Abstract:
Background—Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD), a noninflammatory disease of medium-size arteries, may lead to stenosis, occlusion, dissection, and/or aneurysm. There has been little progress in understanding the epidemiology, pathogenesis, and outcomes since its first description in 1938. Methods and Results—Clinical features, presenting symptoms, and vascular events are reviewed for the first 447 patients enrolled in a national FMD registry from 9 US sites. Vascular beds were imaged selectively based on clinical presentation and local practice. The majority of patients were female (91%) with a mean age at diagnosis of 51.9 (SD 13.4 years; range, 5–83 years). Hypertension, headache, and pulsatile tinnitus were the most common presenting symptoms of the disease. Self-reported family history of stroke (53.5%), aneurysm (23.5%), and sudden death (19.8%) were common, but FMD in first- or second-degree relatives was reported only in 7.3%. FMD was identified in the renal artery in 294 patients, extracranial carotid ...read more

TL;DR: High rates of recurrent SCAD; its association with female sex, pregnancy, and physical and emotional stress triggers; and concurrent systemic arteriopathies, particularly fibromuscular dysplasia highlight the differences in clinical characteristics of SCAD compared with atherosclerotic disease.

TL;DR: Nonatherosclerotic spontaneous coronary artery dissection (NA-SCAD) is underdiagnosed and an important cause of myocardial infarction in young women and survivors are at risk for recurrent cardiovascular events, including recurrent SCAD.
