White (or anemic) infarcts
typically occur in solid organs with end-arterial circulation, such
as the heart, spleen, and kidneys, where the tissue density limits
the amount of hemorrhage from surrounding areas. Red
(or hemorrhagic) infarcts, in contrast, usually occur in soft, loose
tissues like the lungs or intestines. White
infarcts do occur due to arterial obstruction and appear as
wedge-shaped areas with the apex pointing toward the occluded
vessel.
