  • Title: Cardiogenic shock caused by simultaneous subacute stent thrombosis after implantation of sirolimus-eluting stents.
    Author: Kim SH, Kim EJ, Suh SY, Choi CU, Kim JW, Rha SW, Park CG, Seo HS, Oh DJ.
    Journal: Int J Cardiol; 2007 Sep 03; 120(3):423-5. PubMed ID: 17097164.
    Abstract:
    Stent thrombosis is a feared complication of percutaneous coronary intervention, although there is a low incidence of thrombotic events following drug-eluting stent implantation. We report a case with cardiogenic shock complicated by acute myocardial infarction due to simultaneous subacute stent thrombosis occurring 3 days after implantation of two sirolimus-eluting stents in the proximal left anterior descending artery (LAD) and in the proximal right coronary artery (RCA).
