Abstract

Stent thrombosis (ST) in the era of bare metal stents (BMS) using high-pressure stent deployment and combined anti-platelet therapy is an uncommon but feared complication.There is concern for an elevated risk of stent thrombosis (ST) with drug-eluting stents (DES). We describe a case of simultaneous multivessel drug-eluting stent thrombosis 8 h after deployment of paclitaxel-eluting stents in the right coronary (RCA) and left anterior descending (LAD) arteries.
