A 78-year-old man who had been diagnosed with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) was admitted to our hospital with chest pain, cold sweating and nausea. An electrocardiogram and echocardiogram revealed an ST elevated acute lateral myocardial infarction. He underwent an immediate cardiac catheterization. An occluded left circumflex artery was detected by coronary angiography. Reperfusion was performed successfully by non-slip element balloon angioplasty alone, without stenting, to avoid prolonged dual anti-platelet therapy. In this report we discussed the management strategies of acute myocardial infarction in a patient with concomitant ITP.
