Management of the heparin induced thrombocytopenia in the course of acute myocardial infarction

Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a difficult clinical presentation to deal with and we know little about the management of these patients.

description Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a difficult clinical presentation to deal with and we know little about the management of these patients.

We want to present a myocardial infarction patient who developed type I HIT after exposure to unfractionated heparin with a need of anticoagulation at the same time.
