Abstract:
Stent thrombosis (ST) is one of the major complications that occur in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) with stents. Various factors have been attributed to the development of ST, and several strategies have been recommended for its management. We report the case of a patient suffering from recurrent subacute STs after recurrent PCIs. The patient was treated by coronary artery bypass graft (CABG).
