title: Platelet aggregability in patients with common carotid artery ligation.
abstract: Increased platelet aggregability is regarded as being a sensitive indicator of the initiation of thrombotic processes. Platelet aggregation was analysed in blood taken from the common carotid artery before and 30 min after its ligation in 3 patients, as well as in the venous blood of 14 patients in the late postoperative period. No tendency towards increasing platelet aggregation was observed in either of the groups investigated.
