At present major bleeding is a complication of PCI in less than 5 % and subacute stent thrombosis in less than 2 % in average. We describe life threatening bleeding after primary PCI followed by subacute stent thrombosis after necessary reduction of antithrombotic treatment. Complex therapy led to successful management of both complications, more than one year follow up has been uncomplicated. The definitive infarct size and functional parameters of the left ventricle were evaluated by ECG-gated SPECT imaging.

Keywords: Key words: primary PCI, major bleeding, subacute thrombosis.
