Effective Thrombolysis with Tirofiban in young Myocardial Infarction case with FV Leiden Mutation
Abstract
A 19 year-old man presented with severe chest discomfort. The patient had electrocardiographic evidence of acute anterior-lateral wall myocardial infarction. The patient was taken to the catheterization laboratory for primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Coronary angiography revealed intraluminal filling defects due to a massive thrombus in the proximal segment of the left anterior descending coronary artery. Due to the inappropriate coronary structure and length of the thrombus, percutaneous coronary intervention was not performed. Heterozygous factor V Leiden mutation of patient was positive. Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor tirofiban infusion was administered for 48 hours. Control coronary angiography performed at 48 hours showed complete disappearance of the intracoronary thrombus. We present a case of effective thrombolysis with tirofiban in young myocardial infarction case with factor V Leiden mutation
