Coronary thrombosis during acute myocardial infarction: Roberts was right!

W W O'Neill. Am J Cardiol. .

Abstract

Pathologic studies have varied with clinical belief regarding the role of acute thrombotic occlusion as the inciting event during myocardial infarction. Aspiration thrombectomy, by employing a new catheter, has been performed during myocardial infarction and confirms the pathologic findings that intracoronary thrombus is absent in a substantial number of patients with acute myocardial infarction.
