ABSTRACT
We report the case of a 37-year-old man who presented with shortness of breath 1 year post heart transplantation. He was receiving tacrolimus, methylprednisolone, and mycophenolate. An angiogram showed spontaneous coronary artery dissection involving the left anterior descending artery. Percutaneous coronary intervention was performed successfully, with stent placement and return of flow. (Level of Difficulty Advanced.).
