Atherosclerotic plaque rupture: an overview
Plaqueverteilung und Thrombose
Journal of Clinical and Basic Cardiology 2000; 3 (2): 81-86
Plaque disruption and thrombosis. A. A stenotic coronary plaque containing a huge atheromatous core that is separated from the vascular lumen by a very thin cap of fibrous tissue, ie, a "vulnerable plaque". The fibrous cap is disrupted with superimposed nonocclusive luminal thrombosis. B. Higher magnification of the plaque-thrombus interface. The fibrous cap is very thin (between arrows) and heavily infiltrated by foam cells (fc), probably of macrophage origin. C: contrast medium injected post mortem; T: thrombus
