Infarction

Infarction
  • Tissue necrosis due to ischaemia
  • vascular insufficiency of any cause
  • usually arterial occlusion due to
    thrombosis/embolism
  • Mainly due to oxygen deficiency, but toxin
    accumulation reperfusion injury may contribute
  • Number of determining factors
  • Size of vessel and size of vascular territory
  • Partial / total vascular occlusion
  • Duration of ischaemia

4
Appearance of Infarct
  • Wedge-shaped
  • Occluded vessel at apex
  • Periphery of organ forms base
  • If extends to serosal surface, often overlying
    fibrinous exudate
  • Lateral margins blurred due to collateral blood
    supply

Types of Infarct
  • Red (haemorrhagic) infarcts
  • Venous occlusion/congestion e.g. torsion
  • Loose tissues where haemorrhage can occur and
    blood can collect in infarcted zone e.g. lung
  • Tissues with dual blood supply e.g. lung small
    intestine (permitting blood flow from
    unobstructed vessel into infarcted zone note
    flow is insufficient to rescue ischaemia)
  • Tissues that were previously congested due to
    sluggish venous outflow
  • When flow is re-established e.g. fragmentation of
    an occlusive embolus, angioplasty
  • White infarcts
  • arterial occlusion
  • solid tissues, where haemorrhage limited e.g.
    spleen, heart, kidney

Types of Infarct
Red pulmonary infarcts - dual pulmonary /
bronchial arterial supply

Infarct Development
  • Dependent on a number of factors
  • Nature of vascular supply
  • Dual supply e.g. lungs, liver
  • End arteries e.g. kidneys, spleen
  • Rate of vascular occlusion
  • Time for development of collateral circulation
  • Vulnerability to hypoxia
  • Neurons 2-3mins, Myocardium 20-30mins,
    Fibroblasts hours.
  • Oxygen content of blood
  • Anaemia, cyanosis, congestive heart failure
  • Can result in infarction due to otherwise
    inconsequential blockage
  • Size of vessel and size of vascular territory
  • Partial / total vascular occlusion
  • Duration of ischaemia

19
Reperfusion Injury
  • Possible effects of re-establishing blood flow
  • prevention of all necrosis
  • salvage of reversibly injured cells
  • accentuation of damage to irreversibly injured
    cells
  • new cellular damage
  • Latter two constitute reperfusion injury
  • Accentuated or new damage due to re-establishing
    blood flow
  • Many effects of ischaemic injury only seen when
    perfusion re-established

20
Reperfusion Injury
  • Can result in accelerated transition through
    stages of infarct development
  • Timing of infarcts unreliable post reperfusion
  • Inevitable if reperfusion occurs after optimum
    salvage time e.g. usually 6 hours after
    myocardial infarct
  • Characterised histologically by
  • Marked haemorrhage
  • Marked contraction band necrosis

21
Reperfusion Injury
  • Causes
  • delivery of oxygen and calcium ions to damaged
    tissue
  • interior of cells with damaged cell membranes
    exposed to high Ca conc ? cell lysis
  • generation of oxygen-dependent free radicals by
    damaged cells and phagocytes ? cell lysis
  • accentuation of O2-dependent damage
  • Anti-oxidants have only small effect on tissue
    loss
  • Acceleration of damage to irreversibly damaged
    cells more than new cellular damage

22
Shock
23
Shock (cardiovascular collapse)
  • Final Common Pathway for a umber of potentially
    lethal clinical events
  • Severe Haemorrhage
  • Burns
  • Trauma
  • Large MI
  • (massive) Pulmonary Embolism
  • Microbial Sepsis

24
Shock (cardiovascular collapse)
  • Circulatory failure resulting in inadequate
    tissue perfusion (systemic hypoperfusion)
  • Results in
  • hypotension
  • impaired tissue perfusion
  • cellular hypoxia
  • reversible cellular injury
  • irreversible cell injury and cell death

25
Types of Shock
  • Cardiogenic - due to myocardial pump failure
  • Intrinsic damage (MI)
  • Ventricular arrhythmias
  • Extrinsic compression (Tamponade)
  • Outflow obstruction (e.g. pulmonary embolism)
  • Hypovolaemic - due to loss of blood or plasma
    volume
  • Haemorrhage
  • Fluid Loss from severe burns
  • Trauma

26
  • Septic
  • Systemic microbial infection
  • Neurogenic
  • Loss of vascular tone spinal cord injury
  • Anaphylactic
  • Generalised IgE hypersensitivity response-
    systemic vasodilation
  • - due to reduction in effective circulating blood
    volume
  • peripheral pooling secondary to vasodilation and
  • leakage of fluid due to increased vascular
    permeability

27
Types of Shock
  • Cardiogenic
  • myocardial pump failure
  • e.g. myocardial infarction, ventricular rupture,
    ventricular arrhythmia, cardiac tamponade,
    pulmonary embolism
  • Hypovolaemic
  • loss of blood or plasma volume
  • e.g. haemorrhage, trauma, burns, vomiting,
    diarrhoea

28
Types of Shock
  • Neurogenic shock
  • peripheral pooling of blood due to loss of
    vascular tone
  • e.g. anaesthetic accident / spinal cord injury
  • Anaphylactic shock
  • systemic IgE-mediated hypersensitivity reaction
    to allergens e.g. bee stings, peanut
  • release of mast cell mediators
  • systemic vasodilation and increased vascular
    permeability

29
Types of Shock
  • Septic shock
  • overwhelming microbial infection
  • gram negative sepsis
  • due to lipopolysaccharide (LPS / endotoxin) in
    walls
  • gram-positive / fungal septicaemia
  • due to molecules similar to LPS in walls
  • Super-antigen release

30
Septic Shock
  • Usually due to lipopolysaccharide (LPS/endotoxin)
    in walls of gram negative bacteria
  • LPS consists of fatty acid core and complex
    carbohydrate coat
  • Similar molecules in walls of gram positive
    bacteria or fungi
  • results in
  • endothelial damage
  • complement activation
  • activation of macrophages with cytokine release

32
Event Sequence
  • Low doses
  • Local effects of LPS primary mediators (IL-1,
    TNF)
  • Complement activation by LPS
  • Monocyte/macrophage activation by LPS
  • binding to surface receptors
  • production of low doses of IL-1 and TNF
  • Endothelial cell activation by IL-1 TNF
  • production of IL-6 8 by endothelium
  • increased adhesion molecule expression
  • Recruitment of inflammatory cells and cytokine
    cascade

33
Event Sequence
  • Intermediate doses
  • Local effects of LPS secondary mediators (NO,
    PAF)
  • Systemic effects of primary mediators (IL-1, TNF)
  • Endothelial cell injury by LPS
  • triggering of coagulation cascade
  • increased vascular permeability
  • production of secondary mediators by endothelium
  • Local vasodilation due to secondary mediators
    nitric oxide, platelet activating factor
  • Systemic effects of IL-1 and TNF
  • Fever
  • Acute-phase reactant production (CRP, fibrinogen)

34
Event Sequence
  • High doses
  • Systemic effects of LPS, primary secondary
    mediators
  • Widespread endothelial cell injury (LPS,
    cytokines)
  • Acute respiratory distress syndrome
  • Widespread activation of coagulation (LPS,
    cytokines)
  • Disseminated intravascular coagulation
  • Peripheral vasodilation, decreased cardiac
    contractility (NO)
  • Hypotension
  • Multiorgan failure due to hypoperfusion

35
Multiorgan Failure
  • Multiple organ damage due to ischaemia secondary
    to hypoperfusion
  • brain ischaemic encephalopathy
  • heart subendocardial infarcts
  • kidney acute tubular necrosis
  • GIT haemorrhagic enteropathy / ischaemia
  • liver fatty change / centrilobular haemorrhagic
    necrosis
  • ARDS in lungs commonly present concurrently
  • Due to microvascular injury, not ischaemia

36
Stages of Shock
  • Nonprogressive phase
  • Reflex compensatory mechanisms maintain perfusion
    of vital organs
  • Tachycardia, peripheral vasoconstriction (pale
    cold clammy skin), renal conservation of fluid
    (anuria)
  • Progressive phase
  • Tissue hypoperfusion metabolic imbalance
  • Development of acidosis
  • Due to anaerobic glycolysis and renal failure
  • Causes arteriolar dilatation and peripheral
    pooling of blood
  • Worsens hypotension and exacerbates tissue
    ischaemia
  • Irreversible phase
  • Irreversible cellular and tissue injury
  • No response even if haemodynamic defects corrected

38
Consequences of Shock

Normal glomerulus and tubules
39
Consequences of Shock
  • Prognosis varies with cause and duration
  • If circulatory disturbance corrected during
    nonprogressive phase ? full recovery
  • If progress to irreversible phase ? high
    mortality
  • Hypovolaemic shock
  • gt 80 90 survival in young healthy adults (10 -
    20 mortality)
  • Cardiogenic shock due to MI / Septic shock
  • up to 75 mortality even with appropriate
    management
