  6. Bits of bone marrow
  7. Amniotic Fluid
37
Q

Where is pulmonary thromboembolism derived from and what are its effects/ consequences?

A
  • Derived from lower extremity deep vein thrombi
  • Effects depend mainly on size of the embolus and the location it lodges
  • Consequences include: Right sided heart failure, pulmonary hemorrhage, pulmonary infarction, or sudden death
38
Q

What is systemic thromboembolism derived from and what does it cause?

A
  • Derived from cardiac mural or valvular thrombi, aortic aneurysms, or atherosclerotic plaques
  • Causes ischemic (blood flow/ oxygen restriction) necrosis (infarction) of downstream tissues which is dependent on site of embolization and the presence or absence of collateral circulation
39
Q

What can happen if you have pulmonary thromboembolism of the lungs?

A

Since the lungs have dual blood supply you can still get blood supply depending on the location of the embolism

40
Q

What is a saddle blood clot?

A

It affects the right and left sides of the lungs thus size and location matter

41
Q

What is cholesterol emboli derived from, what can it cause, and what it it also known as?

It can cause heart disease (atherosclerosis) which leads to stroke/ heart attack

Not as close to the optic nerve

42
Q

What is Calcific Embolus, what is it derived from, what is its location, and which test would you run?

A

It is made of calcium and from calcification of vales or arteries (aorta) in the heart it breaks away and goes to the retina

You would run an echocardiogram test

It is close to the central retinal artery and OPTIC NERVE

43
Q

What is Fibrin- Platelet Embolus, what is its shape, what is its origin, and where is it located?

A

Pulmonary Thrombombolus

45

A

They can occur in spongy tissues and are typically hemorrhagic (red)

48
Q

What are the features of an infarction caused by an arterial occlusion? Which type of tissue are they in?

A

They can occur in compact tissues and are typically pale (white)

49
Q

What influences infarct devolpment?

A
  1. Anatomy of vascular supply
  2. Rate of occlusion (slow is good so tissue can have collateral blood supply)
  3. Tissue Vulnerability to ischemia
  4. Blood oxygenation
50
Q

What is ischemia?

A

When blood flow is restricted to certain body parts
- Neurons: 3-4 mins to die
- Heart: 30 mins to die

51
Q

What does branch retinal artery occlusion result in? What does it look like?

A

It is localized and results in superior vision loss thus inferior retina is affected

52
Q

What does central retinal artery occlusion result in? What does it look like?

A

The entire retina is affected and there is no vision

  • All retina in pale
53
Q

What does branch retinal vein occlusion result in? What does it look like?

A

It has many hemorrhages on the veins of the retina

54
Q

What does central retinal vein occlusion look like?

A

The entire retina is full of hemorrhages

55
Q

A

Microvascular Thrombosis (DIC): Little blood clots everywhere -> tissue ischemia -> multiorgan failure

72
Q

What is the result of endothelial activation

A

Anti-fibrinolytic: Increase in PAI-1 which prevents blood clot breakdown

73
Q

What is the result of neutrophil and monocyte activation?

76
Q

A

Hypoperfusion -> circulatory and metabolic derangement
