Alveolar Hemorrhage Following Tirofiban Treatment. A Misleading Diagnosis
In clinical trials, very few patients treated with these antiplatelet agents have experienced pulmonary blood loss. Nevertheless, this rate may be underestimated, primarily for under recognition of complication, especially if haemoptysis was not clearly evident.3 The misinterpretation may be due to the striking resemblance on chest x-ray with confounding syndromes, as well as pulmonary edema or...
متن کاملDiffuse alveolar hemorrhage after clopidogrel use.
Pulmonary hemorrhage following percutaneous coronary intervention is a very rare complication that has been previously reported in association with abciximab and tirofiban, but not with clopidogrel. We report the case of a 56-year-old man who developed diffuse alveolar hemorrhage after receiving clopidogrel for placement of a coronary stent. Since clopidogrel is a commonly used medication, clin...
متن کاملEndovascular stroke therapy: tirofiban is associated with risk of fatal intracerebral hemorrhage and poor outcome.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To investigate the relationship between severe bleeding complications and outcome after mechanical thrombectomy with or without glycoprotein-IIb/IIIa inhibitor tirofiban treatment. METHODS The study included prospectively collected data of consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke in whom mechanical thrombectomy was perfomed in the years 2006 to 2011. RESULTS Of...
متن کاملRescue Treatment with Intra-arterial Tirofiban Infusion and Emergent Carotid Stenting
Rapid arterial rethrombosis is associated with high-grade residual stenosis and usually occurs at the site of the initial occlusion, resulting in reocclusion of the recanalized artery. Platelets may play an active role in such rethrombosis after thrombolytic-induced clot lysis. Given that glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor blockers, like tirofiban, prevent thrombus formation by inhibiting the final...
متن کاملInfluence of Tirofiban maintenance duration on patients with acute myocardial infarction treated by percutaneous coronary intervention
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and short term prognosis of Tirofiban in different treatment duration in patients with acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) combined with intracoronary injection. METHODS A total of 125 patients with acute STEMI were enrolled in this study. They were randomly divided into two groups: control gr...
