Abstract

The mortality and morbidity of stent thrombosis are very high. Although subacute stent trombosis of drug eluting stents are similar to bare metal stents, late thrombosis are higher due to delayed endothelization. There is no consensus about the treatment of stent thrombosis and different modalities like balloon angioplasty, urgent by-pass surgery, thrombolytic therapy and half dose thrombolytic therapy plus GPIIb/IIIa receptor blockers infusion all of them have advantages and pitfalls. In this case report a 55 years old male patient who had stent thrombosis due to premature discontinuation of the anti-platelet drugs were treated by half dose thrombolytic therapy (50 mg r-tPA) plus GPIIb/IIIa receptor blockers (tirofiban) infusion. The infarct related artery was observed patent fully in angiography at fifth day of hospitalization. In conclusion we think that half dose thrombolytic therapy plus GPIIb/IIIa receptor blockers infusion is a good alternative in stent thrombosis in patients with low bleeding risks. ©2008, Firat University, Medical Faculty

Yarı Doz Trombolitik Ve Glikoprotein IIb/IIIa Reseptör Blokeri İle Tedavi Edilen Subakut Stent Trombozu

Abstract

Subakut stent trombozunun mortalite ve morbiditesi oldukça yüksektir. İlaç kaplı stentlerde subakut stent trombozu sıklığı çıplak metal stentlerle benzer oranlarda olmasına karşın endotelizasyon geciktiği için geç tromboz olasılığı daha fazladır. Stent trombozunun tedavisinde balon anjiyoplasti, koroner by-pass operasyonu, trombolitik tedavi uygulaması ve yarı doz trombolitik tedavisine ek olarak verilen GPIIb/IIIa reseptör bloker infüzyonu sayılabilir. Bu olgu sunumunda erken anti-trombosit ilaç kesilmesine bağlı olarak subakut stent trombozu gelişen 55 yaşındaki erkek hasta yarı doz trombolitik (50 mg r-tPA) sonrası GPIIb/IIIa reseptör bloker (tirofiban) infüzyonu ile tedavi edildi. Hastanın yatısının 5. gününde yapılan koroner anjiyografisinde enfarkttan sorumlu arterin tam açık olduğu görüldü. Sonuç olarak kanama riski düşük olan hastalarda yarı doz trombolitik sonrası GPIIb/IIIa reseptör bloker infüzyonunun iyi bir seçenek olduğunu düşünmekteyiz. ©2008, Fırat Üniversitesi, Tıp Fakültesi
