This case report presents a conservative management approach to a potentially hazardous complication, iatrogenic coronary artery dissection (ICAD), occurring during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The patient, a 60-year-old woman with a history of chronic hypertension and type II diabetes mellitus, presented with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. During the PCI, an antegrade coronary dissection was observed, leading to the termination of the procedure. Post-procedure, the patient was managed conservatively with standard coronary artery disease treatment. Follow-up angiography showed complete healing of the dissection area, and no adverse cardiovascular events occurred during a 3-month follow-up period. This report highlights the importance of early diagnosis and careful management of ICAD. It stresses the need for further research into long-term outcomes and effectiveness of different treatment approaches for patients with ICAD.
