Abstract: Coronary artery disease (CAD) manifests clinically in older patients predominantly and until recent years it was an uncommon clinical entity in young adults. CAD, once thought as a disease of old, is now becoming increasingly common in the younger generation. This has been seen as a worrying trend especially in developing countries like India and also globally. The incidence of CAD in young Indians is about 12 - 16% as compared to the western population where it is <5% and in two series of patients, women with CAD <40 years of age, comprised 5.6 and 11.4 percent patients.

Keywords: Coronary artery disease, CAD
