It is a sobering experience to read the astute observations describing the link between
thrombosis and the clinical manifestations of ischemic heart disease made by some of the …

Considerable argument still flourishes concerning the exact relationships which exist
between coronary artery thrombosis and athero-sclerosis and, more recently, even between …

The development of coronary thrombi is related to the pathogenesis of the underlying
lesions of the arterial wall. Intimal hemorrhage and rupture of atherosclerotic plaques are …

Over the years, many investigators have related the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis to
thrombosisl-s; atherosclerotic lesions are well known as sites of predilection for thrombus …

From the clinical point of view the most important end results of atherosclerosis are stenosis
and occlusion of the affected artery. A prerequisite for this is a degree of plaque growth …

BACKGROUND That thrombosis might contribute significantly to plaque pathogenesis was
originally proposed by the celebrated pathologist Carl von Rokitansky, 1 who postulated that …

In recent years the widely held concept that coronary thrombi cause myocardial infarcts has
been seriously questioned. On the basis of pathologic studies, several reports have …

Clinicians have traditionally regarded the complications of atherosclerosis as a
consequence of progressive arterial stenosis leading to critical narrowings that impede …
