Overview
Pathophysiology
In Fibromuscular dysplasia, due to the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle of one or more small and medium-sized arteries undergo dysplasia and lead stenosis. this abnormal cellular development is characterized by fibrous thickening of the intima, media, or adventitia of the involved arteries.
Pathogenesis
- Despite numerous genetic, hormonal and mechanical factors have been implicated, the etiology fibromuscular dysplasia remains unknown.
Genetics
- [Disease name] is transmitted in [mode of genetic transmission] pattern.
- Genes involved in the pathogenesis of [disease name] include [gene1], [gene2], and [gene3].
- The development of [disease name] is the result of multiple genetic mutations.
Associated Conditions
Gross Pathology
- On gross pathology, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
Microscopic Pathology
- On microscopic histopathological analysis, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
