Double Whammy: Subacute Stent Thrombosis While Being Adherent to Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Including Ticagrelor, Followed by Multiple Coronary Artery Aneurysms in a COVID-19 Patient.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), although predominantly a respiratory illness, can have important cardiovascular implications, which include the development of myocardial injury/myocarditis, acute coronary syndromes, arrhythmias, pericarditis, and the occurrence of arterial and venous thrombosis. We describe a rare case of a middle-aged COVID-19 patient who developed sub-acute stent thrombosis after implantation of second-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) despite being adherent to dual antiplatelet therapy including ticagrelor and who subsequently developed multiple coronary artery aneurysms within a few weeks of the DES implantation.
