The term for a blood clot depends on whether the clot is stationary or has migrated into the blood stream. A stationary clot that is lodged in the heart or any other organ, is known as a "thrombus". If the blood clot goes elsewhere via the bloodstream, then it is called an embolism.
A stationary blood clot, also known as a thrombus, is a solid mass of blood that forms within a blood vessel and remains in place. It differs from an embolus, which is a clot that has broken loose and traveled through the bloodstream. Stationary blood clots can block the flow of blood and cause various health complications.
A tangled mesh of blood cells is called a blood clot.
A fixed blood clot is called an embolus.
The procedure were a blood clot is removed from a vein is called an embolectomy.
A thrombus is a blood clot. It is attached to the wall of the blood vessel. If it dislodges to flow thru the blood stream then the blood clot is called an embolus. Oftentimes the terms 'blood clot and thrombus' are used interchangeably clinically. However, it is important to note that a 'clot' is the result of the coagulation cascade (e.g. such that it can occur in a vial), while a thrombus refers to BOTH the coagulation cascade occurring AND the aggregation of platelets on the side of a vessel.
