Reviewing imaging modalities for the assessment of plaque erosion [PDF]

open access: yesAtherosclerosis, 2021
Plaque rupture followed by intracoronary thrombus formation is recognized as the most common pathophysiological mechanism in acute coronary syndromes (ACS). The second most common underlying substrate for ACS is plaque erosion whose hallmark is thrombus formation without cap disruption. Invasive and non-invasive methods have emerged as a promising tool

Plaque Rupture and Plaque Erosion

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 1999
SummaryThere are multiple substrates for coronary thrombosis overlying an atherosclerotic plaque. The most common, plaque rupture, consists of an interruption of a thin fibrous cap overlying a lipid rich core. Plaque rupture is a result of macrophage infiltration and matrix degradation, is often seen in calcified plaques, and is highly associated with ...

A61-year-oldmanpresentswith apainlessplaqueon the right sideof his scrotum; theplaque first appeared 1.5yearsagoandhasbeenslowly enlarging since. The patient reports experiencing no fevers or chills since the plaque developed.

Plaque rupture and erosion

2021
Despite improvement in the treatment, prevention, and risk factor management of atherosclerosis, the most frequent cause of death globally remains coronary artery disease. Therefore, it is essential to understand the underlying mechanisms involved in the manifestation of acute coronary syndromes, sudden cardiac death, or stable ischaemic heart disease.

Endothelial dysfunction in plaque rupture and plaque erosion

Heart and Vessels
Vascular endothelial function plays an important role in the pathophysiology of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Plaque erosion (PE) and plaque rupture (PR) are the two major mechanisms of ACS; however, how the vascular endothelial function differs between these etiologies is not well understood.

Angiographic features of patients with coronary plaque erosion

International Journal of Cardiology, 2019
Although an in vivo diagnosis of coronary plaque erosion has become possible by optical coherence tomography (OCT), angiographic characteristics of erosion have not been studied. The aim of this study was to investigate the angiographic features of plaque erosion in patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACS).Patients with NSTE ...

Characteristics of carotid atherosclerosis in patients with plaque erosion

Journal of Thrombosis and Thrombolysis, 2021
Plaque erosion (PE) is a major underlying mechanism of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Patients with PE may have less systemic atherosclerosis. We aimed to clarify the status of carotid atherosclerosis in patients with PE. A total of 115 consecutive patients with ACS who underwent optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging of the culprit lesion were ...

Biomarkers Differentiating Plaque Erosion from Stable Plaque

Current Atherosclerosis Reports
Plaque erosion is the second most frequent cause of acute coronary syndrome, yet the biological processes and biomarkers associated with erosion remain incompletely understood. This review aims to examine the current understanding of plaque erosion, with a focus on identifying potential biomarkers.Recent studies have identified distinct ...

Risk Factors Favoring Plaque Erosion

Current Atherosclerosis Reports
Plaque erosion is the second leading cause of coronary thrombosis following plaque rupture and represents a key pathophysiological process underlying acute coronary syndromes that can culminate in sudden coronary death. While the precise mechanisms and risk factors driving plaque rupture are well-established, those for erosion have only recently been ...
