Abstract:

Objective

To explore the mechanism of stent thrombosis after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in a patient with coronary heart disease and rheumatoid arthritis (RA),and to explore the indications and timing of PCI.

Methods

The clinical data of a patient with coronary heart disease complicated with RA who died after PCI in the Department of Cardiology of the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University on March 5,2021 were selected,and the relevant literature was reviewed.

Results

The patient had a 30-year history of RA,which was poorly controlled by long-term use of hormone drugs,and the pain worsened in the past 10 days.The patient had a 10-year history of coronary heart disease and underwent PCI.The anti-cyclic citrulline peptide antibody was 85.33 U/mL,rheumatoid factor 66.61 U/mL,erythrocyte sedimentation rate 42 mm/h,C-reactive protein 17.4 mg/L,and D-dimer 0.66 mg/L.On March 14,2021,preoperative coronary angiography showed acute stent thrombosis.On March 16,2021,coronary angiography showed 90% stenosis in the proximal segment of left anterior descending (LAD) and 95% stenosis in the opening of D1 branch.The patient underwent PCI and a stent was implanted in the proximal segment of the LAD.Thirty minutes after the operation,the patient felt severe pain in the precordial area.Emergency coronary angiography showed thrombosis in the LAD stent,and the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction flow grade was 0.After active treatment,the patient died.

Conclusions

Coronary heart disease patients with RA in the acute phase are prone to stent thrombosis after PCI.It is necessary to fully evaluate the indications and choose the appropriate time before PCI.
