MINOCA caused by plaque erosion
Srce i krvni sudovi, 2021 Introduction. According to clinical studies, the prevalence of acute myocardial infraction with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is around 5%. MINOCA can be triggered by various atherosclerotic and nonatherosclerotic causes with heterogenous pathophysiological mechanisms.

Coronary Plaque Erosion: Epidemiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment. [PDF]
Int J Mol SciPlaque erosion (PE), a distinct etiology of acute coronary syndromes (ACSs), is often overshadowed by plaque ruptures (PRs). Concerning its epidemiology, PE has garnered increasing recognition, with recent studies revealing its prevalence to be approximately 40% among ACS patients, challenging earlier assumptions based on autopsy data.
