Descriptor English: Dissection, Blood Vessel
Descriptor Spanish: Disección de los Vasos Sanguíneos
Descriptor disección de vasos sanguíneos
Entry term(s) disección arterial
Scope note: Desgarro o separación de las capas de un vaso sanguíneo que generalmente afecta a vasos sometidos a presión, es decir, ARTERIAS, como la AORTA. El desgarro de la capa TÚNICA ÍNTIMA de un vaso sanguíneo puede provocar HEMORRAGIA intersticial. La disección entre las capas túnica íntima y TÚNICA MEDIA causa oclusión luminal. La disección en la túnica media, o entre la túnica media y la capa ADVENTICIA externa, causa dilatación aneurismática.

Scope note: A tear or separation of the layers by a blood vessel typically involving vessels under pressure, i.e., ARTERIES, e.g., AORTA. Tearing of the TUNICA INTIMA layer of a blood vessel may lead to interstitial HEMORRHAGE. Dissection between the tunica intima and TUNICA MEDIA causes luminal occlusion. Dissection at the media, or between the media and the outer ADVENTITIA causes aneurismal dilation.
