Physiological:  exercise Pathological : Inflammatory Post-ischemic   Arterial hyperemia: Hyperemia is a local increased volume of blood in a particular tissue resulting from augmented blood flow due to arteriolar dilation.

Thrombosis Thrombus  Section B
Thrombosis is the process of formation  of a clotted mass of blood within blood vessels or the heart in living body. The resultant mass is called a thrombus.

THREE INFLUENCES OF THROMBOSIS Endothelial injury (most important).  Alone can induce thrombosis. Alterations in normal flow. Hypercoagulability. When the last two are both present,  endothelial injury is not requisite.

Endothelial injury Ulcerative atherosclerosis Transmural myocardial infarction Vasculitis Trauma Radiation Bacterial toxins
Alterations in normal blood flow Platelets activated by contact with  endothelium. Slowed flow retards dilution of activated  clotting factors and hepatic clearance. Stasis or turbulence retards the inflow of  inhibitors. Turbulence may induce endothelial injury
Hypercoagulable states Primary (genetic): Antithrombin III deficiency Protein C deficiency Protein S deficiency Other combined deficiency
Hypercoagulable states Secondary (acquired): High risk: Prolonged bed rest or immobilization. Myocardial infarction.  Tissue damage  (surgery, fractures, burns).  Cardiac failure.  Cancer.  Acute leukemia.  DIC.  Thrombotic thrombocytopenia.
Hypercoagulable states Secondary (acquired): Low risk: Atrial fibrillation.  Cardiomyopathy.  Nephrotic syndrome.  Hyperlipidemia.  Late pregnancy/postdelivery.  Oral contraceptives.  Lupus anticoagulant.  Sickle cell anemia.  Smoking.  Thrombocytosis.

Organization and recanalization of thrombus During organization, the thrombus dissolved and blood could flow again.
 
Ischemia Congestion Heart valve disease DIC Embolism Effects of thrombosis
Embolism Embolus Section C
Embolism is a partial or complete obstruction of some part of the vascular system by any mass carried there in the circulation. The transported material is called an embolus. 99% thromboembolism.
Types of embolus Thromboembolism Fat embolism Air embolism Amniotic fluid embolism Other types
Etiology: Fractures of long bones Soft tissue trauma Burns Fat embolism
90% of individuals with severe skeletal injuries 10% with clinical findings(1-3 days) Pulmonary insufficiency Neurologic symptoms  Fat embolism
Fig 5-17
 
Etiology: Intravenous therapeutic procedures Obstetric procedures Chest wall injury Decompression sickness (nitrogen) Air embolism Gas bubbles within the circulation can obstruct vascular flow. A particular form of gas embolism called decompression sickness occurs when individuals are exposed to sudden changes in atmospheric pressure.
AMNIOTIC FLUID EMBOLISM Incidence:  1/50 000 deliveries Mortality rate:  80% Clinical onset:  Sudden severe dyspnea, cyanosis, hypotensive shock, DIC
 
 
 
 
 
 
Embolus from left heart cavity or  arterial system Embolus from right heart cavity or  venous system Embolus from portal veins Paradoxical embolism Retrograde embolism Motional pathway of embolus:

2.Small emboli (60-80%): Clinical silent in patients without  cardiovascular failure. blood flow from bronchial arteries (collateral vascular supply)
3. Between the extremes of large and  small emboli (10-15%): Pulmonary hemorrhage. 4. Multiple  small emboli: Pulmonary hypertension and vascular sclerosis.
Systemic embolism I .  80-85% from heart, secondary to myocardial infarction. II .  5-10% from auricular thrombi associated  with rheumatic  heart disease and atrial  fibrillation. III .  5% from the dilated cardiac chamber  of myocarditis /  cardiomyopathy. VI .  Less common sources: Debris from ulcerative atheromata,  or thrombi in aneurysms, infectious endocarditis,  prosthetic valves, paradoxical emboli. V .   Unknown.
INFARCTION (INFARCT) Section D
infarct/infarction An infarct is a localized area of ischemic necrosis in a tissue or organ produced by occlusion of either its arterial supply or its venous drainage. The process whereby the infarct is developed is known as infarction.
Intrinsic occlusion for example, thrombosis,  embolism expansion of atheroma Vasospasm Extrinsic compression for example, twisting of the vessels Etiology
INFARCTION Shape: Wedge-shaped Segmental Irregular Nature of necrosis Types: Red and white infarcts Morphology of infarct
 
 
 
 
LM: Ischemic coagulative necrosis Anemic infarct with few RBC Hemorrhagic infarct has engorgement and hemorrhage The pathology changes secondary to infarct such as hyperemia, hemorrhage, infla., organization and so on.
Myocardial infarct The myocardial cells shows coagulative necrosis with the outline of the myocardium. In the margin of the infarct there are numerous inflammatory exudation and connective tissue.
white infarct/anemic  infarct arterial occlusions firm tissues
 
 
 
 
Venous occlusions Loose tissues Tissues with dual circulations Tissues previously congested Blood flow reestablished Red infarct/hemorrhagic infarct
The  alteration of blood in pulmonary embolism
Hemorrhagic infarct of the lung
 
 
 
 
Hemorrhage Hemorrhage denotes an escape of blood from the cardiovascular system, usually is the result of the rupture of a blood vessel or the heart.
