Our patient developed deteriorating symptoms the day after vaccination and was admitted to the emergency department on day 5 after vaccination. After performing laboratory analysis, thrombosis with thrombocytopenia was suggested, further confirmed by highly positive anti-heparin-platelet factor 4 antibodies assay and color Doppler ultrasonography. He was then treated with high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin, corticosteroid, and nonheparin anticoagulant.
