Here PMN's that are marginated along the venule wall (arrow) are squeezing through the basement membrane (the process of diapedesis) and spilling out into extravascular space.
High blood pressure is a serious problem for the blood vessels because it causes wear and tear on the endothelial cells that line the inside of the blood vessels.
Now these free-floating platelets don't clump together during regular circulation — that would be terrible — but when the endothelial cells lining a blood vessel wall tear, the underlying collagen fibers are suddenly exposed.
