ResumoThrombotic coronary occlusion is frequently present in patients with acute localized transmural myocardial infarction. 13 Natelson EA Dooley DF Rapid determination of fibrinogen by thrombokinetics. Am J Clin Pathol. 1974; 61: 33-828 Crossref Scopus (19) Google Scholar However, relatively little attention has been paid to hemostasis as it relates to coronary thrombosis. Retrospective studies of blood coagulation after myocardial infarction do not clearly distinguish between changes resulting from the infarction and preexisting hemostatic alterations that contribute to coronary thrombosis. 3 Mitchell JRA Clinical events resulting from thrombus formation.
