Epidemiological data concerning acute coronary syndromes in Europe are based on national registries, studies by the European Society of Cardiology within the framework of the EuroHeart Survey and on the study of European population sub-groups in large international cohorts. In this article, recently published studies will be reviewed, and the principal developments in different countries as well as the characteristics and particularities of the most recent epidemiological data will be highlighted. In Europe, the presentation of acute coronary syndromes (ACS) has evolved considerably over the last ten years. This evolution is characterized by a reduction in the proportion of acute coronary syndromes with ST-segment elevation (STEMI) and by ageing populations.
