| hyaline thrombus | A translucent colourless plug, partly or wholly filling a capillary or small artery or vein, formed by agglutination of red blood corpuscles. Synonym: agglutinative thrombus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stratified thrombus | A laminated thrombus, the layers of different ages being of different colour or consistency. Synonym: stratified thrombus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| infective thrombus | A thrombus formed in septic phlebitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| obstructive thrombus | A thrombus due to obstruction in the vessel from compression or other cause. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thrombus | <haematology> An aggregation of blood factors, primarily platelets and fibrin with entrapment of cellular elements, frequently causing vascular obstruction at the point of its formation. Some authorities thus differentiate thrombus formation from simple coagulation or clot formation. Compare: embolism. Origin: Gr. Thrombos = clot (18 Nov 1997) |
| fibrin thrombus | A thrombus formed by repeated deposits of fibrin from the circulating blood; it usually does not completely occlude the vessel. (05 Mar 2000) |
| laminated thrombus | A thrombus formed gradually by clotting of the blood in successive layers. (05 Mar 2000) |
