Systemic thrombolysis for acute myocardial infarction in a renal transplant recipient
1997
This study describes the successful management of an acute myocardial infarction occurring in a renal transplant recipient with thrombolytic therapy. Although primary coronary angioplasty has been addressed as an alternative therapeutic approach, this approach raises concern for angiography-related contrast media renal toxicity. However, pharmacological therapy with thrombolytics is effective and relatively safe and should be considered as the first-choice treatment in today's clinical setting.
