Multiple coronary thrombosis and stent implantation to the subtotally occluded right renal artery in a patient with essential thrombocytosis: A case report with review

“…Fewer than 20 cases of essential thrombocytosis with involvement of coronary arteries leading to acute coronary syndromes or myocardial infarction have been reported [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28]. The association between essential thrombocytosis and coronary artery disease was first reported by Saffitz et al [12].…”

“…The majority of the case reports about essential thrombocytosis and acute coronary syndromes/acute myocardial infarction are due to the occlusion of the left anterior descending artery [16]. The left anterior descending artery was reported to be involved in ten patients [12][13][14]16,17,19,21,22,25,26] and the right coronary artery [12,14,17,18] was involved in four patients. The left main coronary artery was involved in three patients [18,23,24].…”

[5][6][7] For the same reason, arterial bypass surgery has also been seldom done, 8 and infrainguinal bypass has not yet been documented in the literature.
