Primary PCI for Acute Myocardial Infarction in a Patient with Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura A Case Report and Review of the Literature

摘要

Background and Purpose: The occurrence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is rare, especially when the platelet count is low. Since only few case reports have been published, there are no recommendations for the management of thrombocytopenic patients with AMI. The aim of the present study is to discuss different aspects of this challenging issue and to review limited data available in the literature.
