Figures
- Fig 1.
Photographs showing a manual elongation test of a thrombin-induced thrombus (A and B) and a new experimental thrombus (C and D). Note that most of the thrombin-induced thrombus was torn before it attained a doubling of its length (A and B), whereas the new experimental thrombi were more elastic and solid and most of them tolerated stretching to 3 times the length of the original size (C and D).
- Fig 2.
Photomicrographs of 3 different types of thrombus. A, Thrombin-induced thrombus was replete with erythrocytes and lacked a layered structure. B, Most thromboemboli recovered from patients with stroke showed a layered structure, including fibrin-rich (F) and erythrocyte-rich (E) layers. C, New experimental thrombus presented a layered pattern similar to that observed in the thromboemboli recovered from patients with stroke (B). C indicates a cellular component; E, an erythrocyte-rich component; F, a fibrin-rich component (hematoxylin-eosin, original magnification ×40).
- Fig 3.
Representative angiograms after deployment of the new experimental thrombus (lateral view, right common carotid artery injection). A, Complete occlusion of an internal maxillary artery was confirmed with a digital subtraction image. B, Nonsubtracted image showed sufficient radiopacity of the injected thrombus.
