Disorders during this vast network of blood vessels, can cause a variety of health problems which may be severe or prove fatal. Vascular disease may be a condition of huge and medium muscular arteries and is triggered by endothelial cell dysfunction. Because of factors like pathogens, oxidized LDL particles and other inflammatory stimuli endothelial cells become active. Vascular disease may be a condition of huge and medium muscular arteries and is triggered by endothelial cell dysfunction. Because of factors like pathogens, oxidized LDL particles and other inflammatory stimuli endothelial cells become active. There are many various causes of the varied sorts of vascular conditions and diseases. However, coronary artery disease (heart attack and chest pain), cerebrovascular disease (stroke), and peripheral arterial disease (loss of limb or use of limb) are some of the leading causes of illness and death in the U.S. Aortitis could also be found within the absence of the other manifestations of a systemic disease. These cases often come to the attention of vascular medicine specialists when patients undergoing surgical repair of aortic aneurysms and dissections are found to have inflammation on the pathologic specimens consistent with aortitis. Autopsies and studies of huge numbers of surgical specimens have demonstrated that non-infectious aortitis occurs in 4% to fifteen of cases. Although on detailed investigation, many of those patients are found to possess had evidence of GCA, Takayasu's arteritis, relapsing polychondritis, WG, or another definable vasculitis retrospectively, it is not uncommon among these cases to find no evidence of more systemic inflammatory disease. The majority of cases of so-called idiopathic aortitis involve thoracic lesions in contrast to the overall predominance of abdominal aortic lesions for non-inflammatory disease. Vascular medicine specializes in the care of your circulatory system outside of your heart. This includes your arteries, veins and lymphatic system:

Arteries: Blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood far away from the guts to the body.

Veins: Blood vessels that carry blood from the body back to the guts.

Lymphatic system: A network of vessels throughout the body that drains lymph fluid from tissues to maintain fluid balance and to clear by products of inflammation. Medical management of vascular disease including: Wound care, minimally invasive venous and arterial procedures using a catheter, Anticoagulation monitoring and management, Vascular lab.
