Overview
Historical Perspective
The phenomenon of embolisation of cholesterol was first recognized by the Danish physiologist Dr Peter Ludvig Panum.[1] Further pathological evidence that eroded atheroma was the source of emboli came from American pathologist Dr Curtis M. Flory, who reported the phenomenon in 3.4% of a large series of patients with severe atherosclerosis of the aorta.[2][3]
