Abstract:
Very-late stent thrombosis is a rare complication. Several factors related to the patient, procedure, and premature discontinuation of antiplatelet therapy are known to contribute to its occurrence. This report describes the case of a 40-year-old patient with simultaneous two-vessel stent thrombosis (left anterior descending and right coronary arteries) 31 months after everolimus-eluting stent implantation.
