BACKGROUND: Protein C deficiency is typically associated with venous thromboembolism; however, arterial thrombosis has been reported in several cases. We report the case of a patient with pulmonary thromboembolism and deep vein thrombosis following acute myocardial infarction with high thrombus burden.
CASE SUMMARY: A 40-year-old man was diagnosed with pulmonary thromboembolism and deep vein thrombosis without any provoking factors. The patient was treated with anticoagulants for six months, which were then discontinued. Three months after the discontinuation of anticoagulant therapy, the patient was hospitalized with chest pain and diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction with high thrombus burden. Additional tests revealed protein C deficiency associated with thrombophilia. The patient was treated with anticoagulants combined with dual antiplatelet agents for 1 year after percutaneous coronary intervention, and no recurrent events were reported during a follow-up period of 5 years.
CONCLUSION: Recurrent thromboembolic events including acute myocardial infarction with thrombus should be considered an alarming sign of thrombophilia.
