AB  - Left main coronary artery (LMCA) thrombus is a clinically rare event and is 
      thought to be secondary to plaque rupture with subsequent thrombus formation, 
      persistent hypercoagulable state, cocaine use, or vasospasm. (Klein et al., 2008) 
      here we present a case of LMCA thrombus that presented as an ST elevation 
      myocardial infarction (STEMI) in a hypercoagulable patient.
