Abstract
Introduction
Myocardial infarction (MI) with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is a heterogeneous entity often overlooked in contemporary medicine. Myocardial infarction (MI) with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is a heterogeneous entity often overlooked in contemporary medicine.
Objective
To assess incidence and characteristics of MINOCA in a large cohort of patients admitted for myocardial infarction.
Method
A total of 1734 consecutive patients were retrospectively enrolled in the STEMI registry of the cardiology B department of Fattouma Bourguiba university. MINOCA was defined as a non-obstructive coronary artery disease and a lack of previous coronary revascularization. Clinical profile and prognosis of all patients were assessed.
Results
The proportion of MINOCA patients among all myocardial infarction was 2.7%. The MINOCA patients were younger (age 47 ± 14.9 vs. 60.7 ± 12.4 years), more often males (87.2% vs. 78.7%) with significantly lower rates of diabetes mellitus (19.1% vs. 36.4%, p = 0.015), hypertension (10.6% vs. 30.6%, p = 0.003), kidney disease (2.1% vs. 7.8%, p = 0.032), peripheral artery disease (2.8% vs. 8.3%, p = 0.015) and previous MI (2.1% vs. 11.1%, p = 0.028) comparing to patients with obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). History of smoking was more common in the MINOCA group. Typical chest pain at presentation was higher in MINOCA patients (98.6% vs. 93,4%, p = 0.046). MINOCA patients presented more frequently anterior ST- segment elevation. All-cause in-hospital and 5 years follow-up mortality rate was lower in the MINOCA patients (1.5% vs. 9.6%, p < 0.001; 7.6 vs. 13.8%, p = 0.036 respectively).
Conclusion
MINOCA represents a challenging group of heterogeneous patients whose clinical characteristics contrast with classical cardiovascular risk factors. A search for etiology and eventual treatment provides a rich avenue for improving prognosis in patients with MINOCA.
