Well, you know,
0:01
it wouldn't be a Dave Yousem talk if I didn't
0:04
use my Mnemonic of vitamin C and D.
0:07
I should say this is not my Mnemonic,
0:08
it was a mnemonic that was provided to me by Stan
0:11
Siegelman when I was a resident way back from 1984
0:15
to 1988 when he was the program director of the
0:18
radiology department at Johns Hopkins Hospital.
0:22
So vitamin C and D refers to the Mnemonic,
0:25
which includes the following:
0:26
and I'll say it quickly: vascular, infectious,
0:29
traumatic, acquired, metabolic, idiopathic,
0:30
neoplastic in general, and drug-related disease.
0:34
And you can use this Mnemonic whether it's
0:36
interstitial lung disease or whether it's
0:39
lesions in the kindle. For our purposes,
0:42
we're going to use it for the carotid space.
0:44
And I will be combining some of these categories.
0:48
So we're going to be talking initially
0:49
about vascular disease,
0:51
but I will combine it with the congenital lesions,
0:55
which include Marfan syndrome
0:58
and Loeys-Dietz syndrome.
1:00
Loeys-Dietz syndrome is a syndrome that
1:02
is very similar to Marfan's syndrome.
1:05
And we see a lot of cases of it at Johns Hopkins
1:09
Hospital because Hal Dietz, for whom this was named,
1:13
is a faculty member at Johns Hopkins,
1:16
and he was the one who described the differences
1:19
between Marfan syndrome and Loeys-Dietz syndrome.
1:22
Loeys is a neurologist who is from Belgium,
1:28
and he worked with Hal Dietz at Johns Hopkins
1:30
Hospital. So when we talk about vascular pathology,
1:33
we'll be talking about these
1:35
two different categories:
1:36
the vascular as well as the congenital category.
1:40
I'd like to start with these vascular pathologies,
1:43
which include fibromuscular dysplasia, Takayasu's,
1:47
arteritis, Marfan syndrome,
1:49
and Loeys-Dietz syndrome.
