The use of drug eluting stents (DES) reduces the risk of restenosis. Prolonged antiplatelet therapy with ASA + thienopyridin is necessary due to delayed reendotelisation of DES, and potentialy higher risk of the in stent thrombosis. The risk of thrombosis in DES is equal to that in bare metal stents in case of prolonged antiplatelet therapy. The authors present a case of late thrombosis in paclitaxel eluting stent due to premature cessation of dual antiplatelet therapy.

Keywords: Key words: drug eluting stents, late thrombosis, dual antiplatelet therapy.
