Recurrent Intra-Luminal Aortic Thrombus And Ischemic Stroke In A Patient With Essential Thrombocythemia (P6.262)
CONCLUSIONS: This case highlights the importance of recognizing essential thrombocythemia as an entity that can lead to devastating complications, including acute coronary syndrome and either arterial and venous thrombosis. Early recognition and effective cytoreductive therapy are cornerstones to the prevention of recurrent embolism. This case demonstrates that Intra-luminal thrombus may resolve and reappear, and can vary greatly in its clinical consequences.Disclosure: Dr. Vela-Duarte has nothing to disclose.
