Our findings indicate that the presence of polyhedrocytes in ICT, observed in one-third of STEMI patients, is associated with smaller minimal IRA diameter, prolonged ischemia and their formation in late presenters is associated with more effective thrombus aspiration and better myocardial reperfusion.
