Very late bare metal stent thrombosis with concomitant patent drug eluting stent in the same vessel: a case for a suggestive hypothesis

Very late bare metal stent thrombosis with concomitant patent drug eluting stent in the same vessel: a case for a suggestive hypothesis

We report a case of very late stent thrombosis of a bare metal stent with a concurrent drug eluting stent’s patency in the same coronary vessel, in a patient undergoing primary angioplasty who discontinued his clopidogrel regimen a few weeks after successful deployment of the stents.
