Visualization of the human coronary vasa vasorum in vivo.
The role of the VV in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis has been studied using animal models of atherosclerosis and human autopsy samples. Histological analyses and micro-CT studies of the pig coronary artery have revealed that inflammatory cells accumulate in the adventitia with proliferation of the VV prior to arterial wall thickening.6 In a mouse model of hypert is a generally accepted vie...
متن کاملVasa Vasorum Imaging
The majority of acute coronary syndromes are the result of coronary plaque rupture. Recent studies have revealed the presence of neovascularization in and around the plaque to be a common feature of presumed rupture-prone (vulnerable) plaques. Intravascular ultrasound combined with contrast enhancement agents has been shown to be useful for the detection and quantification of vasa vasorum (VV) ...
متن کاملEnhanced coronary vasa vasorum neovascularization in experimental hypercholesterolemia.
Coronary arteries contain a network of vasa vasorum in the adventitia. The three-dimensional anatomy of the vasa vasorum in early coronary atherosclerosis is unknown. This study was designed to visualize and quantitate the three-dimensional spatial pattern of vasa vasorum in normal and experimental hypercholesterolemic porcine coronary arteries, using a novel computed tomography technique. Anim...
متن کاملVasa Vasorum in Atherosclerosis and Clinical Significance
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that leads to several acute cardiovascular complications with poor prognosis. For decades, the role of the adventitial vasa vasorum (VV) in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis has received broad attention. The presence of VV neovascularization precedes the apparent symptoms of clinical atherosclerosis. VV also mediates inflammatory...
