Coronary Artery Disease Etiology and Pathophysiology

• Atherosclerosis is the major cause Atherosclerosis is the major cause of CADof CAD• Characterized by a focal deposit of Characterized by a focal deposit of

cholesterol and lipid, primarily within cholesterol and lipid, primarily within the intimal wall of the arterythe intimal wall of the artery

• Endothelial lining altered as a result of Endothelial lining altered as a result of inflammation and injuryinflammation and injury

• C-reactive protein (CRP)C-reactive protein (CRP)• Nonspecific marker of inflammationNonspecific marker of inflammation• Increased in many patients with CADIncreased in many patients with CAD• Chronic exposure to CRP triggers the Chronic exposure to CRP triggers the

rupture of plaquesrupture of plaques

Progression of Atherosclerosis

• Developmental stages: Developmental stages: Fatty streaksFatty streaks• Earliest lesionsEarliest lesions• Characterized by lipid-filled Characterized by lipid-filled

smooth muscle cellssmooth muscle cells• Potentially reversiblePotentially reversible

• Developmental stages: Developmental stages: Fibrous plaqueFibrous plaque • Beginning of progressive changes in the Beginning of progressive changes in the

arterial wallarterial wall• Lipoproteins transport cholesterol and

other lipids into the arterial intima • Fatty streak is covered by collagen

forming a fibrous plaque that appears grayish or whitish

• Result = narrowing of vessel lumen

• Developmental stages: Developmental stages: Complicated lesionComplicated lesion

• Continued inflammation can result in plaque instability, ulceration, and rupture

• Platelets accumulate and thrombus forms

• Increased narrowing or total occlusion Increased narrowing or total occlusion of lumenof lumen

• Collateral circulation: Normally Collateral circulation: Normally

some arterial anastomoses some arterial anastomoses

(or connections) exist within the (or connections) exist within the

coronary circulationcoronary circulation

• Growth and extent of collateral Growth and extent of collateral circulation is attributed to two factorscirculation is attributed to two factors• Inherited predisposition to develop Inherited predisposition to develop

new vessels (angiogenesis) new vessels (angiogenesis)• Presence of chronic ischemiaPresence of chronic ischemia

• When occlusion of the coronary When occlusion of the coronary arteries occurs slowly over a long arteries occurs slowly over a long period, there is a greater chance of period, there is a greater chance of adequate collateral circulation adequate collateral circulation developingdeveloping

Clinical Manifestations of CAD Chronic Stable Angina

• Etiology and PathophysiologyEtiology and Pathophysiology• Reversible (temporary) myocardial Reversible (temporary) myocardial

ischemia = angina (chest pain)ischemia = angina (chest pain)• OO22 demand > O demand > O22 supply supply

• Etiology and PathophysiologyEtiology and Pathophysiology• Primary reason for insufficient blood Primary reason for insufficient blood

flow is narrowing of coronary arteries flow is narrowing of coronary arteries by atherosclerosisby atherosclerosis

• For ischemia to occur, the artery is For ischemia to occur, the artery is usually 75% or more stenosedusually 75% or more stenosed
