Subacute Stent Thrombosis After Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in a Middle-Aged Anabolic Steroid-Abusing Bodybuilder.

ABSTRACT: A 54-year-old male bodybuilder who was abusing anabolic steroids developed an acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction after strenuous strength training. Despite optimal use of dual antiplatelet therapy, on day 4 after primary coronary stenting, the patient suffered another acute coronary event due to subacute thrombosis, potentially pre-disposed by anabolic steroid use. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).
