Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
We report about three cases with a unique simultaneous double- trouble stent thrombosis in different coronary arteries. Although the triggering mechanism remains purely speculative, it is possible that suboptimal stent size and perhaps underexpansion caused the stent thrombosis in one stent resulting in a heightened platelet activation and impaired hemodynamics causing the second stent thrombosis. |
