This form of thrombosis is by anticoagulant drugs." "A second type of thrombosis occurs," he pointed out, "in areas of rapid blood flow such as major arteries of the heart, brain, legs and kidneys. An abnormality of the Woolf vessel wall, usually produced by atherosclerosis, sets off platelet reactions causing them to pile up at the point of abnormality in the artery wall." In time this may completely stop the flow of blood, producing sudden symptoms of a stroke or heart attack. 'We are hopeful," he said; 4 Other Hospltals Cpl. David R. Boyer, USMC, and Mrs.
