The association between fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) and spontaneous cervical artery dissection (SCeAD) has been recognized, but the available evidence on this relationship is scant. Therefore, main goal of our study was to systematically evaluate FMD frequency, clinical characteristics vascular bed involvement in patients with SCeAD. Among 230 referred ARCADIA-POL study, 43 (mean age 44.1 ± 8.9 years; 15 men 28 women) SCeAD were referred. Also, 135 compared without Patients underwent:...

Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD), regarded as a generalized vascular disease, may affect all beds and result in arterial stenosis, occlusion, aneurysm, or dissection. It has been proposed to systematically evaluate patients with FMD, regardless of initial FMD involvement. However, the impact this approach on clinical decisions management is unknown. Within prospective ARCADIA-POL study (Assessment Renal Cervical Artery Dysplasia–Poland), we evaluated 232 lesions confirmed at least one bed, out...

Although visceral artery aneurysms are rare, mortality due to their rupture is high, estimated at even 25-75%. That why it significant detect each such lesion. Visceral usually asymptomatic and found incidentally during examinations performed for other indications. Autopsy results suggest that most remain undiagnosed lifetime. Their prevalence in the population therefore higher. The manifestation of a ruptured aneurysm depends on its location may involve intraperitoneal hemorrhage,...
