Modelling the impact of clot fragmentation on the microcirculation after thrombectomy.
Many ischaemic stroke patients who have a mechanical removal of their clot (thrombectomy) do not get reperfusion of tissue despite the thrombus being removed. One hypothesis for this 'no-reperfusion' phenomenon is micro-emboli fragmenting off the large clot during thrombectomy and occludin...
