ABSTRACT
From an anatomical, physiological and clinical point of view, cardiovascular diseases in women are specific. Long considered as being less exposed to these risks, women are nevertheless victims of coronary disease, which remains, in developed countries, the leading cause of death in women. The situation is all the more concerning given that the number of young women presenting risk factors is constantly rising. Encouraging female patients to become players in their health care with regard to this pathology is especially important given that effective treatments exist which can improve the prognosis.
