block all or part of a blood vessel by a blood clot, which consists of a mass of blood formed elements of the as red blood cells and platelets . Blood clots can form because of ' atherosclerosis of blood vessels, which is a condition of hardening of the walls of blood vessels determined dall'aterosclerosi, which causes a slowdown or even obstruct the passage of blood.
When thrombosis occurs in a coronary artery (coronary thrombosis) can cause heart attacks , if it hits the ' carotid artery, causing a minor contribution of oxygen to the brain and determines cerebral thrombosis. When a blood clot detaches from the vessel wall and enters the bloodstream occurs the so-called embolism.
The treatment of thrombosis can occur with drugs that inhibit the responsiveness of platelets to form clots, such as' acetylsalicylic acid, anticoagulants such as heparin, and enzymes that dissolve blood clots, such as 'urokinase and streptokinase.
