Diseases of the heart and blood vessels (cardiology)

Blockade of the left bundle branch of the Hiss bundle

What is left bundle branch block? It is an abnormality of the heart's electrical activity detected on ECG, indicating impaired conduction of electrical impulses along the left fibers of the atrial-ventricular (atrioventricular) bundle.

Right bundle branch blockade

Purulent pericarditis

Inflammatory processes in the pericardium - the pericardial bursa - may have different mechanisms of origin and development, differ in treatment approaches and prognosis. However, purulent pericarditis has the most unfavorable course: many cases of this disease are fatal.

Ruptured aortic aneurysm

Even with regular monitoring of the dynamics of aortic aneurysm development, it is impossible to predict the course of the pathological process in advance. Unfortunately, complications occur quite often, and the problem can be completely eliminated only by surgery.

A cerebral embolism

The pathology of cerebral circulation, in which emboli carried by the blood flow get stuck in the vessel, causing narrowing of the internal lumen (stenosis) or its occlusion and complete closure (occlusion and obliteration), is defined as cerebral embolism.

Atherosclerosis of the cervical vessels

Atherosclerosis of the cervical vessels, as well as other arteries, refers to diseases of the circulatory system, caused by the accumulation of cholesterol in them in the form of plaques, which are formed in places of micro-damage to the vascular walls.

Transmural myocardial infarction

Transmural myocardial infarction, in turn, is considered a particularly severe pathology, when necrotic foci damage the entire thickness of the ventricular wall, from the endocardium to the epicardium.

Venous aneurysms

Vein aneurysms are less common, but still occur. The pathology is mostly congenital, but it can also result from trauma.

Uremic pericarditis

Aneurysm in women

According to statistics, aneurysms in women are somewhat less common than in men, but they have a higher incidence of complications. Without timely medical intervention, such complications are inevitably fatal.
