Our case is notable because of the severity of the clinical manifestation despite the administration of antiplatelet agents and anticoagulants. It could be speculated that the development of coronary thrombosis in this case might be strongly correlated with the late initiation of oral anticoagulation. The high-quality images of the affected coronary arteries in such a young patient could be of educational value.
