RESUMEN

Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) usually occur in patients with multiple cardiac risk factors. In young adults, drug use and hypercoagulable states are common causes for ACS presentations.

We discuss his unique management and review the evidence on the management of arterial thromboembolism in PV patients.
