Coronary thrombosis is the formation of a blood clot inside a blood vessel of the heart. This blood clot restricts blood flow within the heart. It is associated with narrowing of blood vessels subsequent to clotting. The condition is considered as a type of ischaemic heart disease. Thrombosis in the heart can lead to a myocardial infarction.
When coronary thrombosis develops at a site of narrowing artery, it may completely block the blood vessel that supply blood to the heart muscle. That part is severely damage, the vessel may cease to contract at that point, and what results, then, will be sudden and severe death.
