1 Atheroembolism in cardiac surgery
John R Doty, MD, Robb E Wilentz, MD, Jorge D Salazar, MD, Ralph H Hruban, MD, Duke E Cameron, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 75, Issue 4, Pages (April 2003) DOI: /S (02)

2 Fig 1 Brain computed tomography scans demonstrating massive right hemispheric infarction with herniation (A) and cerebellar infarction (B). The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (02) )

3 Fig 2 (A) Large cholesterol embolus in right middle cerebral artery. (B) Cholesterol embolus in small cerebral artery with associated cerebral infarction, necrosis, and cyst formation. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (02) )

4 Fig 3 (A) Atheroembolism in intramyocardial artery with focal contraction band necrosis. The evident loss of nuclei and cytoplasmic pallor is consistent with ischemic damage. (B) Atheroembolism to epicardial coronary artery. Dye injection demonstrates occlusion from the embolism. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (02) )

5 Fig 4 (A) Atheroembolism to the kidney. Multiple infarctions with hemorrhage and associated emboli are visible. (B) Atheroembolism to the pancreas. This patient has severe necrotizing pancreatitis with associated emboli. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (02) )

6 Fig 5 (A) Atheroembolism to the spleen. Hemorrhagic infarction with associated cholesterol emboli is visible. (B) Atheroembolism to the colon, showing submucosal embolization with overlying mucosal hemorrhage and necrosis. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (02) )
