Fibrin content of carotid thrombi alters the production of embolic stroke in the rat.

Abstract

The composition of a nonocclusive thrombus may determine the embolic potential of this thrombus. A low fibrin content in a nonocclusive platelet thrombus may enhance the embolic potential. This suggests that platelet inhibition may also be indicated in patients with carotid artery disease who are being treated with anticoagulant.
