Recurrent very late stent thrombosis after bare-metal stent implantation.

Very late bare-metal stent thrombosis occurring beyond 1 year after stenting is uncommon. Although much attention has been paid for late stent thrombosis, long-term outcome of patients who developed late stent thrombosis is not clear. We report a case of recurrent very late stent thrombosis after bare-metal stent implantation. (c) 2007 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
