What is the Histological Impact of Thrombolytics on Blood Vessels?
Histologically, the administration of thrombolytics can lead to changes in the vascular endothelium. These changes include endothelial cell detachment and alterations in the basement membrane, which can be visualized under a microscope. The breakdown of the clot can also lead to a temporary increase in vascular permeability, allowing for the infiltration of inflammatory cells. This highlights the importance of understanding the histological effects to mitigate potential side effects during treatment.
