This accident is of less frequent occurrence than might theoretically be supposed. The exact nature of the symptoms depends, of course, upon the vessel which happens to be obstructed and the function of the part which it supplies. Physical signs due to altered condition of organs and partsother than the heart, arteries, and veins.
