A case of embolic non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy in a young patient
TNOA Journal of Ophthalmic Science and Research, 2022 We report a rare case of unilateral non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAAION) of embolic origin in a 47-year-old male caused by hypertriglyceridaemia and significant atherosclerotic stenosis of bilateral carotid arteries.

Statistical physics of cerebral embolization leading to stroke [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E vol. 80, 051912 (2009), 2008 We discuss the physics of embolic stroke using a minimal model of emboli moving through the cerebral arteries. Our model of the blood flow network consists of a bifurcating tree, into which we introduce particles (emboli) that halt flow on reaching a node of similar size.

Liquid embolic agents for interventional embolization
ChemPhysMater, 2022 Minimally invasive interventional embolization has tremendous advantages over conventional surgery in the treatment of vascular diseases and malignant tumors. Particularly, liquid embolic agents have garnered much attention owing to their properties of deep vascular penetration and full occlusion of vasculature independent of thrombus formation, which ...
