Abstract
Thirteen years after her last thrombotic event, anticoagulation was discontinued in a patient with combined thrombophilia involving mutation in factor V and G20210A polymorphism of the prothrombin gene. The only history was of arterial thrombosis. Three months later she presented a transmural myocardial infarction caused by coronary thrombosis.

Thrombophilia
Resumo
Após treze anos do último evento trombótico, a anticoagulação foi interrompida numa paciente com associação de trombofilia factor V de Leiden e gene mutante da protrombina G20210A. Ela possuía história de tromboses arteriais. Três meses após, a paciente apresentou enfarte transmural do miocárdio devido à trombose coronariana.
