Q

What is the pathology of calcific aoritc stenosis?

A

Early: sclerosis (fibrosis) and thickening, lipid deposition, macrophages and lymphocytes (looks like athlerosclerosis!!–and has the same risk factors–smoking, obesity, HTN

–> inc afterload

Late: nodular heaped-up calcifications in minportion of each cusp, protruding into sinuses of valsalva
*arthlerosclerosis also calcifies

Q

Why does aoritc stenosis cause angina?

A

hypertrophic left ventricle has inc need for blood + rocks/calcification blocking coronary ostia = impedes blood flow to coronary arteries –> chest pain (even with normal coronary arteries

Q

Why does aortic stenosis cause dyspnea?

A

blood cant get out of valve –> back up –> hypertrophy of left ventricle –> dilation of pulmonary veins –> inc pressure in pulmonary vessels/pulmonary HTN –> LHF

Q

In what ways is aortic stenosis like HTN heart disease?

A

in both, there is narrowing of the lumen of the vessels (aorta)–> higher BP causes hypertrophy of the left ventricle bc the heart is trying to work harder to push an increased afterload

difference: valve is fucked up vs the vessels are fucked up, but they both cause increase in afterload

23
Q

You are a heart with MVP that has a rupture of chordae tendinae which causes regurgitation of 70 mL of blood. How can your cope?
How quickly does this compensation occur after injury?

A

inc contractility!! (pump harder) and allow for blood to fill in ventricle (inc filling volume) to…

  • increased SV
  • increased EDV

** only 30 mL sent out in SV (normal is 100)

24
Q

You are a heart with MVP that has a rupture of chordae tendinae which causes regurgitation of 70 mL of blood.

Suppose the best you can do is 40% more SV and 13% moe EDV to compensate.

What is the total SV, forward SV, and EDV?

Will this be enough to avoid HF?

A

Total SV –> 140 mL
forward SV = 70 mL

EDV –> 170

25
Q

Symptoms of ruptured cordae tendinae (before compensation)

A

significant, immediate drop in SV –> dyspnea, syncope, angina upon exertion + murmur

26
Q

normal SV

A

100 mL

27
Q

____% reduction is forward stroke volume is the threshold for heart failure
RED SLIDE

A

25%

28
Q

____ mL SV is is threshold (max) for HF

A

75 mL

29
Q

What is the gross pathology of acute rheumatic heart disease?

microscopic?

A

tiny (1-2 mm) verrucous (wartlike) vegetations lined up on the line of valve closure. Fibrous pericarditis

Microscopic: fibrin-platelet vegetations/thrombi on valves
Aschoff bodies
Anitschkow cells

30
Q

How can you prevent ARHD

A

Abx (penicillin) therapy for strep throat

33
Q

Chronic RHD is common with

A

with recurrent and/or severe carditits at an early age

A

gross pathology if rheumaric mitral stenosis

37
Q

38
Q

how happens to the left atrium? Why?

A

dilation of L atrium behind stenoitc valve

39
Q

You are heard with chronic mitral valve regurgitation of 95 mL. How does the heart cope?

A
  1. inc SV
  2. inc EDV
  3. left ventricular dilation (bc chronic and have lots of time)
40
Q

You are heard with chronic mitral valve regurgitation of 95 mL.
Suppose the best this heart can do is double the normal SV and add 90 mL to the EDV. What will this be?

WIll this be enough to avoid HF?

A

SV: 200 mL
-forward = 100 mL and backward = 100 mL (~ spilt 50-50)
