Abstract
Cannabis is the most widely used illicit drug in the world. It is generally considered to be a drug with low toxicity. Nevertheless, there are several case reports of myocardial infarction following cannabis use in otherwise low-risk individuals. We report the first case of a cannabis user presenting with acute coronary syndrome related to multivessel coronary artery dissection.
