Affected during the aging process of arteries making them less compliant?

principal points of physiologic resistance to blood flow?

ideally suited for the exchange of diffusible substances between blood and tissues?

Involved in the release of anticoagulant, antithrombotic, and fibrinolytic regulators in endothelial cells?

characterized by calcificantions of the medial walls of muscular arteries, typically starting along the internal eslastic membrane and are usually not clinically significant?

Atherosclerosis can induced the formation of aneurysm through pressure or ischemic atrophy of what particular layer of the blood vessel wall??

What is the major structural component of the fibrous cap of atherosclerotic plaque which accounts for its mechanical strength and stability?

This pertains to ruptured wall of blood vessels with extravasation of blood into its surrounding extravascular connective tissue giving it a bulging hematoma on one side.

This form of vasculitis primarily affects older individuals and can involve the aorta and other large sized arteries causing intimal thickening with medial granulomatous inflammation, lymphocytic infiltrates, giant cell formation, with a negative serum ANCA

A 22 year-old, male, heavy smoker came in due to severe lower extremity pain at the distribution of the tibial artery with claudication and ulcer formation. Blood vessel show a lumen occluded by a thrombus containing microabscesses and the vessel wall is infiltrated with leukocytes.

This form of vasculitis presents with orogenital ulcers. Biopsy often shows neutrophilic infiltrates of the affected vessel which is needed for its diagnosis.

This form of primary vasculitis clinically presents with asthma and atopy. Biopsy will show eosinophilic infiltrates of the affected vessel.

It can manifest with fever, conjunctival injection, mucosal erythema and cervical lymphadenopathy. Death may be due to myocardial infarction due to ruptured coronary artery aneurysm. Biopsy will show dense transmural inflammatory infiltrate and fibrinoid necrosis.
