Popis: Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) carries bleeding and thrombotic risks; however, thromboses associated with ITP have not been histologically examined. This report presents optical coherence tomography images of the culprit lesion and histology of coronary aspirates in very late stent thrombosis complicating severe ITP, providing evidence of platelet-rich thrombus formation. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
