ABSTRACT
A 78-year-old man presented with an eight-hour history of chest distress. Electrocardiograph and serum cardiac enzymes were suggestive of acute inferior myocardial infarction with right ventricular infarction. The patient, who underwent emergency percutaneous coronary intervention, suffered from thrombocytopenia presenting with cerebral infarction and myocadial reinfarction during haparin exposure. The laboratory test for heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) specific antibodies (heparin-platelet factor, PF4) was positive. The case was diagnosed as arteries thrombosis due to heparin-induced thrombocytopenia; the patient died after cessation of heparin.
