How can you use “thrombus” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Distal embolization of particulate matter, including plaque debris and thrombus, complicate percutaneous coronary and peripheral interventions more often than had been recognized until recently.
However, the success of these medical interventions is most commonly defined by angiographic resolution of the "no-reflow" phenomenon (an acute reduction in coronary flow less than Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction [TIMI] 2 in the absence of dissection, thrombus, spasm, or high-grade residual stenosis at the original target lesion).
The benefit is thought to be, in part, due to a reduction in the incidence of ischemic complications, which is likely to be secondary to prevention of platelet aggregation, thrombus formation, and distal embolization, in native coronary arteries [ 6].
Independent predictors of distal embolization include diffuse degeneration and large plaque volume rather than thrombus, and angioscopy studies have found that vein graft friability, rather than thrombus, was a stronger predictor of distal embolization and 'no-reflow' [ 9, 10].
