Chapter 27 - Vascular III Flashcards
What is Paget-von-Schrotter disease?
effort induced thrombosis of subclabian vein
Venography gold standard for evaluation
men, pain swelling with activity
80% have thoracic outlet problem
thrombolytics, heparin, warfarin. Repair.
What is mortality from mesenteric ischemia?
50-70%
What are fintings of mesenteric ischemia on CT?
bowel thickening, intrabural gas, portal venous gas, vascular occlusion
Wat are causes of visceral ischemia?
Acute embolic occlusion 50%
Thrombotic occlusion 25%
low-flow state 15%
Venous thrombosis 5%
Superior mesenteric embolism occurs in what area of SMA?
origin of SMA pain out of proportion sudden onset hematochezia peritoneal signs late finding Tx: volume resusc. antibiotics, embolectomy, resect infarcted bowe, heparin
What are signs of mesenteric artery thrombosis?
food fear
wt loss
Thrombectomy, SMA bypass, resect infarcted bowe
What are signs of mesenteric vein thrombosis?
short segments of intestine involved
bloody diarrhea, crampy abdominal pain
Heparin, thrombolytics, can try mesenteric vein thrombectomy if dx early, resect bowel
Non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia happens when?
Spasm low flow states hypovolemia hemoconcentration Digoxin Water shed areas most common Tx volume resuscitation, glucagon, papaverine, nitrates, increase CO, resect bowel
What is Median arcuate ligament syndrome?
celiac compression bruit near epigastrium chronic pain weight loss diarrhea Tx: transect median arcuate ligament, may need arterial reconstruction
Chronic mesenteric angina?
food fear
30 minutes after meals
may need PTA, bypass, endarterectomy
What is the collateral between SMA and celiac?
arc of riolan
What is the most common complication of aneurysms above inguinal ligament?
Rupture
What is the most common complication of aneurysms below inguinal ligament?
thrombosis and emboli
What do you do with splanchnic aneurysms?
repair, 50% rupture rate
What do you do with splenic artery aneurysms?
most common visceral aneurysm.
more common in women
Repair if symptomatic, pregnant, women of childbearing age
What dilatation of visceral arteries is considered aneurysmal?
> 2cm
What can you do with splenic and common hepatic aneurysms?
can exclude- have good collaterals
What are the surgical indications for iliac a aneurysms?
symptomatic- thrombosis, emboli, compression, >3.0cm, mycotic
bypass with exclusion
What are surgical indications for femoral a aneurysm?
symptomatic, >2.5cm
What are the surgical indications for popliteal aneurysms?
exclusion and bypass of >2cm, mycotic, symptomatic
1/2 bilateral, 1/2 have another aneurysm elsewhere
thrombosis and emboli with limb ischemia most common with these
What do you do with a femoral pseudoaneurysm?
if acter percutaneous intervention need US guided compression with thrombin injection. May need surgical repair if this fails
-collection of blood in continuity with the arterial system but unenclosed by all 3 layers of the wall
What are the surgical indications for renal A aneurysms?
symptomatic, expansion, >1.5 com, women who want to get knocked up.
reconstruction with vein patch; nephrectomy with rupture
Fibromuscular dysplasia?
young women, HTN if involves renals
renal most commonly involved vessel (right), carotid next, iliac next
string of (anal) beads
medial fibrodysplasia most common variant
PTA or bypass
What is Buerger’s disease?
you men, smokers, corkscrew collateral on angiogram and severe distal disease
severe rest pain
gangrene of digits
normal arterial tree proximal to popliteal and brachial
stop smoking or amputate
What diseases cause cystic medial necrosis?
marfan’s- type I collagen
Ehlers-danlos - tendency for arterial rupture
Can’t do angiogram- risk of laceration of vessel
What is temporal arteritis?
giant cell arteritis- granulomatous disease
inflammation of large vessels
long segments of smooth stenosis alternating with segments of larger diameter
fever, arthralgia, myalgia, anorexia
Steroids, bypass, no endarterectomy
What is takayasu’s?
same path, syx, and treatment of temporal artheritis
What is polyarteritis Nodos?
Get aneurysms that thrombose or rupture
renals most common
steroids
