Peripheral Arterial Disease Flashcard Deck - 10 Cards

Flashcard 1: Which is the best graft for a femoropopliteal bypass?_____

Answer: GSV

Flashcard 2: Chronic Buerger's disease(Thromboangiitis obliterans) may result in _____ of the vessels in majority of the cases.

Answer: recanalisation

Flashcard 3: _____ syndrome is an aortoiliac occlusive disease (AIOD) that presents with the triad of intermittent claudication, erectile dysfunction, and absent femoral pulses.

Answer: Leriche

Flashcard 4: The two underlying pathological processes that are associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm are _____ and atherosclerosis

Answer: chronic transmural inflammation

Flashcard 5: Aortic aneurysm may cause _____ and/or back pain, which is a sign of leaking, dissection, or imminent rupture

Answer: abdominal

Flashcard 6: The _____ internal mammary artery is the preferred vessel for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

Answer: left

Extra: The **Internal Mammary Artery (IMA)** is also known as the **Internal Thoracic Artery (ITA)**. The **Left Internal Mammary Artery (LIMA)** is the preferred conduit for CABG (especially when bypassing the Left Anterior Descending [LAD] artery) because of its superior long-term patency (>90% at 10 years) compared to saphenous vein grafts.

Flashcard 7: Abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture presents with a triad of _____, a pulsatile abdominal mass, and flank pain

Answer: hypotension

Flashcard 8: Treatment of Moyamoya disease: Surgical bypass of _____ arteries to the dura or middle cerebral artery

Answer: extracranial carotid

Extra: Revascularization procedures for Moyamoya disease: - **Direct bypass**: e.g., STA-MCA bypass (Superficial Temporal Artery to Middle Cerebral Artery). - **Indirect bypass (Synangiosis)**: e.g., EDAS (Encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis), where the STA is placed in contact with the brain surface.

Flashcard 9: _____ mesenteric ischemia may occur due to a thrombotic or embolic occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery

Answer: Acute

Flashcard 10: Stanford type _____ dissections, involving both the ascending and descending aorta are also classified as DeBakey type I

Answer: A
