Hemodynamic Disorders Part 2 Flashcards
99% of all infarcts result from…..
thrmbotic or embolic events
name organs that form red infarcts and why
intestines, lungs
organs with dual or intensive collateral circulation
what organs form pale (white) infarcts and why
have single arterial blood supply: heart, splee, kidney
an infarct in the BRAIN typically undergoes what kind of necrosis?
liquefactive – becomes a fluid filled cyst known as a CYSTIC INFARCT
name 3 organs with dual blood supply and what this means
lung
liver
hand/forearm
will form red infarct
name 3 organs with single blood supply and what this means
spleen
heart
kidney
will form pale (white) infarct
infarction caused by VENOUS thrombosis is likely to occur where and why?
testis and ovary bc they have single venous outflow channels
true or false
slowly developing occlusions are less likely to cause an infarction
true
a pale infarct affects what vessels?
what about red?
pale = arterial occlusion
red = venous occlusion
red infarct affects ___ organ
loose
pale affects solid
ovary and testis cause red or pale infarct
red
liver and intestine cause pale or red infarct
red
MOST infarctions show what kind of necrosis?
ischemic coagulative necrosis
exception is the brain where liquefactive necrosis is common
give 3 “solid” organs and thus pale infarcts
kidney
heart
spleen
causes of edema are:
______ hydrostatic pressure
______ colloidal (oncotic) pressure within blood vessels
increased hydrostatic pressure
reduced oncotic pressure within blood vessels
