Morphological characteristic groups with stroke.

Groups	Structure of infiltrate	Macrophages in vessel wall	Condition of the vessels	Extravasate
1	Macrophages with light granules only	No	Small number of vessels in infiltrate and penumbra	Small in infiltrate only
2	Macrophages with green granules predominantly	Macrophages with green granules only	Large number of vessels in infiltrate and penumbra; hypertrophied vessels outside the zone of injury	No
3	Macrophages with light and green granules	Macrophages with light and green granules	Large number of vessels in infiltrate and penumbra; blood stagnation in the capillary boundary zone	Extensive in infiltrate and penumbra
4	Macrophages with light and green granules	Macrophages with light and green granules	Large number of vessels in infiltrate and penumbra	Small in penumbra only
5	Macrophages with light granules predominantly	Macrophages with green granules only	Maximal number of vessels in infiltrate and penumbra	No
