Fibromuscular Dysplasia.
The most common clinical manifestations of fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) are hypertension due to renal artery involvement and transient ischemic attack or stroke due to carotid or vertebral artery involvement. Patients with renal artery FMD and hypertension should undergo primary angioplasty with the goal of curing the hypertension. If the blood pressure fails to normalize following angioplasty...
متن کاملFibromuscular dysplasia
Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD), formerly called fibromuscular fibroplasia, is a group of nonatherosclerotic, noninflammatory arterial diseases that most commonly involve the renal and carotid arteries. The prevalence of symptomatic renal artery FMD is about 4/1000 and the prevalence of cervicocranial FMD is probably half that. Histological classification discriminates three main subtypes, intima...
متن کاملFibromuscular Dysplasia
The circulatory system is made up of the heart and blood vessels. There are 3 major types of blood vessels: arteries, veins, and lymphatics. The heart is the pumping organ and helps to push oxygenand nutrient-rich blood through the arteries to the organs and the limbs. The veins return blood from the organs and limbs to the heart so that it can be resupplied with oxygen from the lungs. The lymp...
متن کاملRevisiting Fibromuscular Dysplasia
Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) has been defined as an idiopathic, segmental, nonatherosclerotic, and noninflammatory disease of the musculature of arterial walls, leading to stenosis of smalland medium-sized arteries. Furthermore, to confirm the diagnosis of FMD, arterial diseases of monogenic origin, inflammatory arterial diseases, and the use of arterial vasoconstrictors have to be excluded. R...
متن کاملVasculitis or fibromuscular dysplasia?
The pathogenesis of TA is poorly understood. Vessel inflammation results in wall thickening, fibrosis, stenosis and thrombus formation.2 Panarteritis with adventitial and intimal scarring extends distally from the aorta into its branches, causing narrowing and occlusions. Inflammation can destroy the arterial media and lead to aneurysm formation.2 Morbidity due to vascular occlusion and aneurys...
