Abstract
Polycythemia vera (PV) is a chronic myeloproliferative disorder characterized by a high risk of developing arterial and venous thromboembolic complications. In recent years, great insight has been gained into the understanding of the pathogenesis of thrombosis in PV. Diagnosing and managing a case of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) due to non-atherosclerotic causes is a challenge. In this case report, we share our experience in diagnosis, management and revascularization issues in non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) in a patient with polycythemia vera background.
