Association between dissection and platelet accumulation in rabbit angioplasty model; leaves open whether antiplatelet strategies mitigate early thrombosis in human PCI.
In a rabbit model of atherosclerosis, marked platelet accumulation occurs early after transluminal angioplasty and correlates with the extent of vascular dissection.
Wilentz et al. (1987) studied this question.
