Thrombosis and Connective Tissue Interrelationships in Arteriosclerosis

  • Chapter
Arterial Mesenchyme and Arteriosclerosis

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 43))

Abstract

The growth of a thombus is determined by the combined influences of blood flow, blood constituents, and blood vessel (Virchow, 1860). Major attention has been given to the circulating elements of the blood which participate in thrombus formation. Studies of these elements have led to a detailed in vitro description of blood coagulation in terms of the physiologic reactivity of procoagulants and platelets. Recently, the biologic application of numerous synthetic materials has brought those concerned with thrombus formation to inquire in a detailed manner into the influence of blood flow. The use of these materials has attracted the expertise of bioengineers interested in the field of fluid mechanics. The effect has been an emerging, comprehensive description of the behavior of physiologic fluids relating to the pathophysiology of thrombus formation. Results from these disciplines have underscored the need to consider the role of the remaining affector of thrombogenesis — the vascular surface.
