However, in 0.1% to 3.8% of cases thrombus transforms into fibrous masses. If vascular obstruction is severe, the resulting condition is chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Patients who carry ventriculo-atrial (VA-) shunts for the treatment of hydrocephalus and report a history of shunt infection are at an increased risk for CTEPH. Because CTEPH lacks traditional plasmatic risk factors for venous thromboembolism, we hypothesized that delayed thrombus resolution rather than abnormal coagulation is important, and that bacterial infection would be important for this misguidance.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>\n                      <jats:italic>Methods and Results\u2014<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:bold>\n                    Human CTEPH thromboemboli were harvested during pulmonary endarterectomy. The effects of Staphylococcal infection on thrombus organization were examined in a murine model of stagnant-flow venous thrombosis. Staphylococcal DNA, but not RNA, was detected in 6 of 7 thrombi from VA shunt carriers. In the mouse model, staphylococcal infection delayed thrombus resolution in parallel with upregulation of transforming growth factor (TGF) beta and connective tissue growth factor.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>\n                      <jats:italic>Conclusions\u2014<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:bold>\n                    In the present work, we propose a mechanism of disease demonstrating that infection with Staphylococci enhances fibrotic vascular remodeling after thrombosis, resulting in misguided thrombus resolution.
