ABSTRACT
Very late stent thrombosis (VLST) refers to stent thrombosis occurring beyond one year after coronary intervention. "Very" very or extremely late stent thrombosis (VVLST), occurring after five years of drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation, is extremely rare. We report a case of a 60-year-old male patient with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) due to in-stent thrombosis 12.3 years after first-generation DES implantation; we also engage in a brief discussion of its pathogenesis and prevention.
