Rupture Form Blood Describe Thrombosis Atheroma Plaque Endothelium

Atheroma can rupture the endothelium, creating a rough surface where platelets and fibrin accumulate to form a clot (thrombus), and debris from the rupture can lead to further clot formation.

A ateroma pode romper o endotélio, criando uma superfície rugosa onde plaquetas e fibrina se acumulam para formar um coágulo (trombo), e detritos da ruptura podem causar a formação de coágulos adicionais.

Front Describe thrombosis
Back Atheroma plaque can rupture through endothelium layer
This damages the artery wall leaving a rough surface
Platelets and fibrin accumulate and form a blood clot(thrombus)
Debris from rupture can cause another blood clot to form
