From: Histologic differences between in situ and embolized carotid web thrombi: a case report
Gross specimen (a1, b1), H&E staining (a2, b2) and clot analysis (a3, b3, c). (a1) Retrieved clots from the right MCA, (b1) CaW superimposed thrombus after CEA. (a2, b2) H&E-stained sections of retrieved cerebrovascular embolized clots and in situ thrombi magnified 40x. H&E staining showing red blood cells (red), fibrin/platelets (pink), and white blood cells (blue). (a3,b3, c) The relative proportion of red blood cells, fibrin, and platelets was quantified using the Orbit Imaging Analysis Software based on H&E staining, in situ thrombi magnified 100x. *, cranialis; red arrow, thrombus along the web; green arrow, web; yellow arrow, fatty streak
