A fatal complication of tirofiban in an octogenarian: Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage
چکیده انگلیسی

SummaryAn 84-year-old female patient with a past medical history significant for hypertension and diabetes mellitus, was admitted to the Emergency Department with acute coronary syndrome and complete atrioventricular block. She underwent a successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Ten minutes following tirofiban administration, the patient complained of hemoptysis and severe dyspnea. After chest X-ray and diagnostic bronchoscopy, she was diagnosed with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage. She died because of respiratory insufficiency on the third day of hospitalization. We present the first tirofiban-related diffuse alveolar hemorrhage case caused with half of the recommended dose of tirofiban used in the setting of non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction.
