Pathological Characteristics of Aspirated Thrombi From Coronary Artery Embolism in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction
This study suggests that aspirated thrombi derived from patients with AMI due to CE are more erythrocyte-dominant and fresher than those derived from patients with AMI due to atherosclerotic causes. Identifying the etiology of patients with AMI is important because anticoagulation therapy is essential for secondary prevention in patients with CE.
