Angiodystonia or vascular dystonia is a pathological condition in which the tonic adaptive function of blood vessels is impaired as a result of dysfunction of the structure of their walls and development of the muscular layer; both arteries and veins can be affected.

Angiodystonia

Angiodystonia or vascular dystonia is a pathological condition in which the tonic adaptive function of blood vessels is impaired as a result of dysfunction of the structure of their walls and development of the muscular layer; both arteries and veins can be affected. Vascular dystonia (pathology of tone) is characterized by dysfunction of local blood flow or general circulation.

Aneurysm

Aneurysm is a bulging of the arterial wall that occurs as a result of its thinning or stretching. This contributes to the formation of an aneurysmal sac, which can put pressure on nearby tissues. An aneurysmal sac is a pathological cavity that occurs as a result of the organization of a perivascular hematoma and connects with the lumen of the artery.

Gamstorp's disease

Gamstorp's disease is one of the possible manifestations of muscle weakness, which is associated with a sharp increase in the potassium content in the human blood.

Takayasu's disease

Takayasu's disease is an inflammation of the aorta and its branches of an unknown cause, characterized by an uneven pulse and pressure, a characteristic noise.

Varicose veins

Varicose veins is a pathological process that is associated with deformation, enlargement and formation of nodes on the veins that are located close to the surface of the body. Most often, this pathology occurs on the legs.

Venous insufficiency

Venous insufficiency is a pathological process that occurs as a result of insufficiency of the valves of deep veins. Physical inactivity, hormonal imbalances, and cardiovascular diseases can cause problems with venous blood outflow.

Internal bleeding

Internal bleeding is a pathological condition in which blood flows from the vessels into the abdominal, pleural cavity, retroperitoneal space, stomach, or intestines.

Hematomyelia

Hematomyelia is a spinal hemorrhage, during which bleeding occurs into the membranes and spinal substance.

Hypertensive cerebral crisis

Hypertensive cerebral crisis is a reaction to a sudden and sharp increase in blood pressure, followed by a disruption of normal blood circulation in the brain.

Hypovolemic shock

Hypovolemic shock is a process in which a patient's circulating blood volume sharply decreases. The cause of its occurrence is a decrease in the level of water and electrolytes during diarrhea or vomiting, which are complicated by other infectious diseases.

Lymphangitis

Lymphangitis is an inflammation of the lymphatic vessels or capillaries that occurs as a result of purulent infections in the body.

Impaired blood circulation in the extremities

Impaired blood circulation in the extremities is a pathology that occurs as a result of changes in the quantity and quality of blood in the vessels of the extremities or a violation of the integrity of these vessels.

Cerebral circulatory disorder

Cerebral circulatory disorder (CCD) is a process that occurs in the vessels of the brain due to various systemic diseases that damage the cerebral vessels and the normal blood flow through them.

Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) Deficiency

Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) Deficiency is a pathology characterized by an increase in the concentration of pyruvic acid in the blood and tissues, changes in water balance, protein, carbohydrate and fat metabolism.

Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) Deficiency

Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) Deficiency is a pathological condition in which there is a failure in the oxidation-reduction reactions of the body.

Vitamin A (Retinol) Deficiency

Vitamin A (retinol) deficiency is a pathological condition that occurs due to a deficiency of this vitamin. It is characterized by hemeralopia, xerophthalmia, conjunctivitis, and hyperkeratosis of the skin.

Vitamin B3, PP (niacin, nicotinic acid) Deficiency

Vitamin B3, PP (niacin, nicotinic acid) deficiency is a pathological condition caused by a lack of the element in the body. Pellagra or hypovitaminosis is observed, accompanied by impaired intestinal function, skin lesions, and nervous system failures.

Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) deficiency

Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) deficiency is a pathological condition caused by a lack of pyridoxine in the human body, characterized by damage to the oral mucosa, skin, and changes in the functions of the central nervous system.

Vitamin C deficiency

Vitamin C deficiency is a pathological condition that occurs as a result of acute deficiency of ascorbic acid, characterized by a violation of oxidation-reduction, metabolic processes of iron, folic acid, synthesis of steroid hormones and catecholamines.

Circulatory failure

Circulatory failure is a disorder of the circulatory system, which manifests itself as its inability to supply blood to tissues and all organs in the amount necessary for the normal functioning of the body. People with a history of atherosclerotic lesions are at risk of developing circulatory failure. The main target organs in this case, as a rule, are the vessels of the heart and brain, in which episodes of ischemia or hemorrhage may occur as the underlying disease progresses. Since the main cause of circulatory failure is heart disease, the most common cause of this disorder is coronary heart disease and myocardial infarction.

Obliterating thromboangiitis

Obliterating thromboangiitis is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the inner lining of small and medium arteries and veins. Their lumens narrow, thrombosis is observed, and ischemic necrosis may also occur due to impaired peripheral circulation.

Acute blood loss

Acute blood loss is a fast-moving process of irreversible blood loss in a very short period of time. It begins as a result of injuries (closed or open type) and disruption of the integrity of blood vessels in certain types of diseases (ulcerative gastrointestinal tract, myocardial infarction, hemophilia). It poses a threat to the vital functions of the organism.

Post-thrombophlebitic disease

Post-thrombophlebitic disease (PTFB)

Post-thrombophlebitic disease (PTFB) is a pathology that occurs after deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities.

Goodpasture's syndrome

Goodpasture's syndrome is an autoimmune disease that affects small vessels in the kidneys and lungs, as the body produces autoantibodies to them. It is accompanied by pulmonary hemorrhage, people with weak immunity are most susceptible, and it is quite rare.

Venous thrombosis

Venous thrombosis is a condition in which a blood clot forms inside the veins. This condition is typical for the veins that carry blood to the lungs and heart from the periphery.

Thrombophlebitis

Thrombophlebitis is a disease characterized by inflammation of the inner venous wall, which leads to the formation of a thrombus, which provokes the closure of the lumen of the vessel and leads to the development of thrombosis. Most often, the veins of the lower extremities are susceptible to this disease, but thrombophlebitis of the veins of the upper extremities can also develop.

Thrombocytopathy

Thrombocytopathy is a group of diseases that develop due to a malfunction of platelets.

Trophic ulcer

A trophic ulcer is an open wound on the skin or mucous membrane and is a skin defect. It is not an independent disease, but a consequence of such diseases as varicose veins, lymphostasis and diabetes.

Phlebitis

Phlebitis is a general name for a group of inflammatory diseases of the venous bed. The process develops in the wall of the vein. Most often it affects the lower, less often the upper limbs. It can also be localized in the vessels of the brain (cerebral), the portal vein of the liver (pylephlebitis).

Chronic venous insufficiency

Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) is a complex vascular pathology characterized by impaired venous blood outflow and associated complications.

Obliterating endarteritis (EO)

Obliterating endarteritis (EO) is an occlusive lesion of the arteries of the lower extremities (LE), caused by a violation of the neurohumoral vascular regulation.
