Abstract
Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is the most important and the most frequent drug-induced, immune-mediated type of thrombocytopenia. It is associated with significant mortality and morbidity if unrecognized. We describe a patient with a giant thrombus on the apical wall of the left ventricle that occurred due to HIT syndrome after anterior myocardial infarction.
