31
Q

Most common site of arterial thrombosis

A

coronary > cerebral

32
Q

Most common site of venous thrombosis

A

Superficial or deep veins of the leg

33
Q

the most common sources of venous emboli

A

thrombi in deep leg veins are the most common sources of venous emboli
(Thrombi in superficial leg veins rarely embolize)

34
Q

Thrombi accumulate additional platelets and fibrin

A

Propagation

35
Q

Thrombi dislodge and travel to other sites in the vasculature

A

Embolization

36
Q

Rapid shrinkage and total disappearance of recent thrombi

A

Dissolution

37
Q

Thrombi becomes incorporated in the vessel wall with formation of new capillary channels that restore blood flow

A

Organization and recanalization

38
Q

Most common and most dreaded sequela of deep venous thrombosis

A

Pulmonary embolism

39
Q

Embolus occluding the bifurcation of the pulmonary trunk; associated with sudden death due to acute right-sided heart failure

A

40
Q

41
Q

45/F, known case of thyrotoxic heart disease and chronic atrial fibrillation, developed sudden left-sided weakness and loss of sensation. What is the type of embolism observed in the patient?

A

42
Q

A

Paradoxical embolism (Cardiac pathology is PFO patent foramen ovale)

43
Q

refers to an embolus which is carried from the venous side of circulation to the arterial side, or vice versa. It is a kind of stroke or other form of arterial thrombosis caused by embolism of a thrombus (blood clot), air, tumor, fat, or amniotic fluid of venous origin, which travels to the arterial side through a lateral opening in the heart, such as a patent foramen ovale,[1] or arteriovenous shunts in the lungs.

A

paradoxical embolism

A

Air embolism (Decompression sickness)

47
Q
