摘要
A 44-yr-old woman with a drug-eluting coronary stent placement two weeks before surgery suffered a myocardial infarction in the postanesthesia care unit immediately after hysterectomy. She had missed only one dose of aspirin and clopidogrel preoperatively. Early recognition of subacute stent thrombosis and urgent percutaneous coronary intervention probably prevented her death. In this case report, we highlight perioperative coronary stent issues and discuss their implications.
