Abstract
Abstract: A case of a 60 year old male with a history of myocardial infarction treated with coronary angioplasty with stent implantation, who was admitted to the hospital for coronary artery by-pass grafting (CABG), is presented. The post-operative course was complicated by new acute MI due to the in-stent thrombosis. The patient received aspirin and ticlopidine, and underwent intra-aortic balloon pumping followed-by an effective coronary angioplasty of the infarct-related coronary artery.
