Abstract :Through the pentose monophosphate pathway, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) enzyme protects erythrocytes and hemoglobin molecules against oxidative stress. In G6PD enzyme deficiency, which is seen as the most common enzyme deficiency in the world; clinical conditions such as acute hemolytic anemia, neonatal jaundice, favism and inherited non-spherocytic hemolytic anemia are observed. During acute coronary syndrome, oxidative agents and medications applied before and coronary angiography may cause hemolytic and thrombotic crisis. In this article, we performed coronary angiography on a 64-year-old female patient with G6PD deficiency with a pre-diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome. We present a widespread case of coronary thrombosis during and after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Keywords : Akut koroner sendrom, akut tromboz, glukoz-6-fosfat dehidrojenaz, perkütan koroner girişim.
