We describe a 54-year-old man who was HIV-positive, admitted for cardiogenic shock complications inferior myocardial infarction. He was treated with primary percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PCTA) and stent deployment in mid right coronary artery. After a few days thrombotic occlusion of the stent occurred, and the problem recurred during implantation of a new stent in the course of a second PTCA. We detected coinheritance of factor V Leiden, primary antiphospholipid syndrome and antithrombin deficiency. We discuss the role of these coagulation disorders in acute myocardial infarction as well as the treatment and course of the coronary syndrome in this context.

D003328 Coronary Thrombosis Coagulation of blood in any of the CORONARY VESSELS. The presence of a blood clot (THROMBUS) often leads to MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION. Thrombosis, Coronary,Coronary Thromboses,Thromboses, Coronary
D005165 Factor V Heat- and storage-labile plasma glycoprotein which accelerates the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin in blood coagulation. Factor V accomplishes this by forming a complex with factor Xa, phospholipid, and calcium (prothrombinase complex). Deficiency of factor V leads to Owren's disease.

D000991 Antithrombins Endogenous factors and drugs that directly inhibit the action of THROMBIN, usually by blocking its enzymatic activity. They are distinguished from INDIRECT THROMBIN INHIBITORS, such as HEPARIN, which act by enhancing the inhibitory effects of antithrombins.
