POLYARTERITIS NODUSA
group of systemic necrotizing
vasculitides
THROMBOANGIITIS
OBLITERANS
( BUERGER’S DISEASE )
- thrombosis of medium-sized
vessels
(fibrous encasement of artery, vein
& nerve)
WEGENER’S
GRANULOMATOSIS
- necrotizing vasculitis of small
arteries and
witn granulomatous
inflammation
RAYNAUD DISEASE
- paroxysmal pallor or cyanosis of
the digits of hands or feet
RAYNAUD PHENOMENON
- arterial insufficiency of the
extremities
• CONGENITAL
ANOMALIES:
- ARTERIOVENOUS FISTULA
abnormal communication between
artery and vein
ANEURYSMS
ETIOLOGIC CLASSIFICATION
– Atherosclerotic aneurysm ( most
common)
– Syphilitic aneurysm ( thoracic aorta)
– Dissecting aneurysm (hypertension)
ANATOMIC CLASSIFICATION
– Saccular aneurysm (balloon like-arterial
dilatations)
– Fusiform aneurysm ( spindle- shaped
dilatations)
– Berry aneurysm ( Circle of Willis)
VEINS
• VENOUS THROMBOSIS
– Thrombophlebitis
– Phlebothrombosis
– Deep venous thrombosis
– Predisposing conditions
venous stasis / hypercoagulable state
( embolization to pulmonary
arteries)
• VARICOSE VEINS
– (superficial veins of lower extremities)
LYMPHATICS
PRIMARY DISORDERS
– Simple congenital lymphedema
– Heredofamilial lymphedema
( Milroy’s disease )
– Lymphedema praecox
SECONDARY DISORDERS
– Filariasis - (Elephantiasis)
TUMORS of ARTERIES VEINS
& LYMPHATICS
• BENIGN TUMORS
– ANGIOMAS
• Cavernous hemangiomas ( Von Hippel - Lindau
disease)
• Capillary hemangiomas (bleeding)
– GLIOMANGIOMAS (Glomus tumor)
– VASCULAR ECTASIAS (spider telengiectasia)
• OSLER RENDU- WEBER DISEASE
• PATHOLOGY
– Benign hypertension
earliest phase, no change
later, hyaline arteriolosclerosis
– Malignant hypertension
diastolic pressure > 110mm Hg
fibrinoid necrosis of media w/ marked
intimal fibrosis
tissues with acute ischemia &
microinfarcts
elevated serum renin levels
HYPERTENSION
• CLINICAL FEATURES
– Early hypertension
asymptomatic
– Hypertensive heart disease
left ventricular hypertrophy
increased risk of ischemic heart disease
– Hypertensive renal disease
decreased glomerular filtration
progressive glomerular fibrosis
elevation of serum creatinine & hematuria
– Hypertensive cerebral disease
cerebral thrombosis & hemorrhage
hypertensive encephalopathy (headache)
– Hypertensive retinal disease (“ cotton
wool spots “ )
PATHOLOGY OF THERAPEUTIC
INTERVENTIONS IN VASCULAR
DISEASE
• THROMBOLYSIS
- dissolution of a clot
- plasminogen activators
• BALLOON ANGIOPLASTY AND RELATED
TECHNIQUES
- dilatation of stenosed artery by balloon
catheter
- causes plaque fracture
• VASCULAR REPLACEMENT
- large diameter Dacron grafts perform well
than small dia
• CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS GRAFT SURGERY
