25
do aortic dissections frequently rupture
- yes
26
which groups are predisposed to dissection
- men 40-60 with previous hypertension | - younger patients with connective tissue disorders like Marfan
27
common factor of aortic dissection
- weakening of aortic media
28
most frequent preexisting lesion in aortic dissection
- cystic medial degeneration
29
result of aging in aortic dissection
- mild degenerative changes - focal elastin loss - medial fibrosis
30
what may trigger the aortic dissection event
- spontaneous intimal laceration | - vasa vasorum hemorrhage
31
cadiac/vascular anomalies of marfan syndrome
- weakness of aortic media - aortic regurgitation - CHF - mitral valve prolapse
32
people with marfan syndrome have a high incidence of
- dissection and rupture
33
what is the most common cause of death in marfan syndrome
- cardiovascular disorders
34
marfan syndrome has what genetic pattern?
- autosomal dominant
35
marfan syndrome defect in what
- fibrillin-1 | - chromosome 15q21.1
36
microfibrillar fibers are critical for
- deposition of elastin during development
37
what do affected tissues in Marfan syndrome show
- fragmented elastic fibers
38
what is the most frequent preexisting histologic lesion
- cystic medial degeneration
39
cystic medial degeneration is the separation of _____ by ______
- elastic and fibromuscular elements | - by small "cystic" spaces filled with extracellular matrix
40
aortic dissection tear is usually where
- intimal tear in ascending aorta | - within 10 cm of aortic valve
41
aortic dissection separates
- aorta along media
42
most frequent cause of death in aortic dissection

44
proximal, proximal and distal dissections are which type?
- type A
45
distal dissections only are which type?
- type B
46
which type of dissections are the most common common and most dangerous
- type A - proximal
47
what is the formation of an aggregate of coagulated blood with platelets, fibrin, and entrapped blood cells within the vascular lumen
- thrombosis
48
major subtype of thrombosis
- arterial | - venous
49
arterial thrombosis most commonly
- superimposed on atheroma
50
venous thrombosis most commonly
- due to stasis
51
three major factors predisposing to thrombus
- changes blood constituents - changes in intimal surface of blood vessel - changes in patterns of blood flow
52
changes in blood constituents conditions
- primary and acquired hypercoagulability
53
changes in intimal surface of blood vessel
- endothelial denudation or dysfunction
54
changes in patterns of blood flow
- stasis | - turbulence
55
common sites of arterial thrombosis
- large and medium muscular arteries | - intracardiac
56
pathogenesis of arterial thrombosis
- endothelial damage - altered blood flow (stasis) - hypercoagulability
57
progress of arterial thrombosis
- lysis - propagation - organization - recanalization - embolization
58
what is the most common cause of death in western industrialized countries
- arterial thrombosis | - especially MI and cerebral infarction
59
mural thrombosis of the heart is associated with
- MI - Afib - cardomyopathy - endocarditis
60
major complication of thrombosis
- embolization
61
what is the passage through the arterial or venous circulation of any material capable of lodging in vessel and obstructing lumen
- embolism
62
sites of venous thrombosis
- deep veins
63
pathogenesis of venous thrombosis
- stasis - vascular injury - hyper coagulability - advanced age - sickle cell disease
64
progress of venous thrombosis
- lysis - propagation - organization - recanalization - embolization
