Relationship between watershed infarcts and recent intra plaque haemorrhage in carotid atherosclerotic plaque.

Relationship between watershed infarcts and recent intra plaque haemorrhage in carotid atherosclerotic plaque.

Watershed infarcts (WSI) are thought to result from hemodynamic mechanism, but studies have suggested that microemboli from unstable carotid plaques may distribute preferentially in watershed areas, i.e., between two cerebral arterial territories.
