title: [Coronary thrombosis on oral contraception (author's transl)].
abstract: A case of myocardial infarction observed in a 27 years old female taking an oestrogen-progestogen combination for contraception, who died suddenly two months after the resection of a left ventricular aneurysm, provided unprecedented anatomical documents. Their histological examination allowed to state the thrombotic mechanism of the coronary occlusion and brought arguments in favour of an alteration of the coronary arterial wall in the form of thickening of the intima, likely to have been the starting point of this thrombosis.
