Abstract
A case of a 40-year-old male patient with a right subclavian artery aneurysm of fibromuscular dysplasia origin is reported. The patient presented with thoracic outlet-like symptoms and underwent aneurysm resection. Microscopic examination revealed intimal and medial fibroplasia. Additional cases of fibromuscular dysplasia at this rare location are reviewed, indicating a male and right-sided predominance. The most frequent clinicopathological manifestation was an aneurysm, with the histopathological pattern characterized by medial fibroplasia. Treatment modalities included the use of either graft prosthesis or end-to-end anastomosis.

Abstract
Cardiovascular conditions in the spectrum of acute coronary syndromes are characterized by sex differences with regard to pathophysiology, risk factors, clinical presentation, invasive and pharmacologic treatment, and outcomes. This review delves into these differences, including specific subsets like myocardial infarction with non-obstructed coronary arteries or Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection, and alternative diagnoses like Takotsubo cardiomyopathy or myocarditis. Moreover, practical considerations are enclosed, on how a sex-specific approach should be integrated in clinical practice: in fact, personal history should focus on female-specific risk factors, and hormonal status and hormonal therapy should be assessed. Moreover, physical and psychological stressors should be investigated, particularly in the event of Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection or Takotsubo cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
According to the World Health Organization, cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death among women worldwide, yet its magnitude is often underestimated. Biological and gender differences affect health, diagnosis, and healthcare in numerous ways. The lack of sex and gender awareness in health research and healthcare is an ongoing issue that affects not only research but also treatment and outcomes. The importance of recognizing the impacts of both sex and gender on health and of knowing the differences between the two in healthcare is beginning to gain ground. There is more appreciation of the roles that biological differences (sex) and sociocultural power structures (gender) have, and both sex and gender affect health behavior, the development of diseases, their diagnosis, management, and the long-term effects of an illness. An important issue is the knowledge and awareness of women about vascular diseases. The risk of cardiovascular events is drastically underestimated by women themselves, as well as by those around them. The purpose of this review is to draw attention to improving the medical care and treatment of women with vascular diseases.

Abstract
Rare vascular conditions frequently pose a diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma for health care providers. Several of these conditions have distinct relevance to females populations but, due to their infrequency, there has been little reported on the outcomes of rare vascular conditions specifically in females populations. We performed a literature review of a selection of three rare vascular conditions known to either disproportionately affect females (median arcuate ligament syndrome and fibromuscular dysplasia) or have unique manifestations in females populations (vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome). We performed a descriptive review of the literature focused on these three vascular conditions and identified aspects of the current available research describing sex-based differences in prevalence, any pathophysiology explaining the observed sex-based differences, and the contribution of sex to outcomes for each disease process. In addition, considerations for pregnant females with respect to each rare vascular disease process are discussed.

Abstract
We present a rare case of fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) manifesting in the mid segment of right renal artery, which led to the development of refractory hypertension. The patient received balloon angioplasty to a severe lesion on the middle of right renal artery and subsequently had normalisation of blood pressures. Fractional flow reserve (FFR) detection of the renal artery before and after balloon dilatation was 0.71 and 0.98, respectively. The patient showed renal artery stenosis (RAS) with distal tumour-like dilatation, and multiple tortuosity and stenosis in carotid artery and coronary artery. At follow-up 2 months later, her blood pressures had normalised.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical characteristics of renal artery fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) in patients in China and identify the cure rate of hypertension after angioplasty. METHODS Consecutive hypertensive patients with renal artery stenosis caused by FMD who underwent catheter-based angiography, and were followed at two Chinese referral centres, were retrospectively analysed. All patients underwent a detailed investigation, including demographic characteristics, clinical characteristics, biochemical sampling, Doppler ultrasonography of carotid arteries, magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) of the intracranial artery, and CTA or MRA of the abdominal artery and catheter-based renal angiography. Patients were routinely followed up at 1 month, 6 months and every year after the procedure. RESULTS Among 245 study participants, with a mean diagnosed age of 26.9 ± 9.9 years, 137 (55.9%) were women, and 38 (15.5%) were children. All patients were diagnosed with hypertension at a mean age of 23.4 ± 8.4 years. There were 73.5% focal and 15.2% multivessel cases. Aneurysms, arterial dissections and total occlusions were found in 21.6, 4.1 and 12.2% of patients, respectively. Patients with multifocal FMD were older (26.0 vs. 23.7 years, P = 0.021) and more often female (70.8 vs. 50.6%, P = 0.004). Among children with renal FMD, 55.2% were men, and 86.8% were focal. After a median follow-up of 7.0 years, multifocal FMD had a higher cure rate of hypertension than focal FMD after revascularization (71.7 vs. 55.8%, P = 0.032). CONCLUSION In a cohort of mostly young Chinese patients, the prevalence of hypertension associated with renal FMD is similar in both sexes. Focal FMDs were more frequent than the multifocal ones and, after angioplasty, were associated with a worse blood pressure outcome.

Abstract
Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a rare systemic vascular disease that has been found to present as a renal infarction (RI) in only a handful of cases. We present a case of a 53-year-old Vietnamese patient presenting for sharp, severe left-sided abdominal pain of two-day duration associated with a migraine headache. On presentation, she was afebrile, and her vital signs were stable. Laboratory investigations were significant for mildly elevated leukocytosis but were otherwise normal. CT abdomen and pelvis with contrast revealed a left-sided renal infarct. The patient was then admitted to the hospital and started on therapeutic anticoagulation. A transthoracic echocardiogram was obtained and revealed no vegetation. CT angiography of the abdomen was pursued and was significant for mild beading within the mid-right and left renal arteries, consistent with fibromuscular dysplasia. Our patient was diagnosed with renal infarction in the setting of fibromuscular dysplasia, a combination that has been reported only a few times. Interestingly, our patient also had mild FMD based on imaging, making it even more of an unusual cause of renal infarction. This case highlights the connection between these two diseases and the need for more studies to characterize the association between them.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of arterial diseases may be elevated among family members of individuals having multifocal fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD). We sought to investigate the risk of arterial diseases in families of individuals with FMD. METHODS Family histories for 73 probands with FMD were obtained, which included an analysis of 463 total first-degree relatives focusing on FMD and related arterial disorders. A polygenic risk score for FMD (PRSFMD) was constructed from prior genome-wide association findings of 584 FMD cases and 7139 controls and evaluated for association with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) in a cohort of 9693 AAA cases and 294 049 controls. A previously published PRSAAA was also assessed among the FMD cases and controls. RESULTS Of all first degree relatives of probands, 9.3% were diagnosed with FMD, aneurysms, and dissections. Aneurysmal disease occurred in 60.5% of affected relatives and 5.6% of all relatives. Among 227 female first-degree relatives of probands, 4.8% (11) had FMD, representing a relative risk (RR)FMD of 1.5 ([95% CI, 0.75-2.8]; P=0.19) compared with the estimated population prevalence of 3.3%, though not of statistical significance. Of all fathers of FMD probands, 11% had AAAs resulting in a RRAAA of 2.3 ([95% CI, 1.12-4.6]; P=0.014) compared with population estimates. The PRSFMD was found to be associated with an AAA (odds ratio, 1.03 [95% CI, 1.01-1.05]; P=2.6×10-3), and the PRSAAA was found to be associated with FMD (odds ratio, 1.53 [95% CI, 1.2-1.9]; P=9.0×10-5) as well. CONCLUSIONS FMD and AAAs seem to be sex-dimorphic manifestations of a heritable arterial disease with a partially shared complex genetic architecture. Excess risk of having an AAA according to a family history of FMD may justify screening in family members of individuals having FMD.

Differences in Demographics and Outcomes Between Men and Women With Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection. JACC Cardiovasc Interv 2022; 15:2052-2061. [PMID: 36265936 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcin.2022.08.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2022] [Revised: 08/05/2022] [Accepted: 08/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/05/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an increasingly recognized cause of myocardial infarction (MI) that most frequently affects women. The characteristics of men with SCAD are less well described. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to describe the characteristics of men with SCAD. METHODS We compared baseline demographics, clinical presentation, angiographic findings and cardiovascular outcomes of men and women in the Canadian SCAD Study. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were composite of death, MI, stroke or transient ischemic attack, heart failure hospitalization, and revascularization. RESULTS Of 1,173 patients with SCAD, 123 (10.5%) were men. Men with SCAD were younger than women (mean age 49.4 ± 9.6 years vs 52.0 ± 10.6 years; P = 0.01). Men had lower rate of prior MI than women (0.8% vs 7.0%; P = 0.005). Men were less likely to have fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) (27.8% vs 52.7%; P = 0.001), depression (9.8% vs 20.2%; P = 0.005), emotional stress (35.0% vs 59.3%; P < 0.001), or high score on the Perceived Stress Scale (3.5% vs 11.0%; P = 0.025) but were more likely to report isometric physical stress (40.2% vs 24.0%; P = 0.007). There was no difference in angiographic types of SCAD, but men had more circumflex artery (44.4% vs 30.9%; P = 0.001) and fewer right coronary artery (11.8% vs 21.7%; P = 0.0054) dissections. At median follow-up of 3.0 (IQR: 2.0-3.8) years, men had fewer hospital presentations with chest pain (10.6% vs 24.8%; P < 0.001). There were no differences in in-hospital events or follow-up MACE (7.3% vs 12.7%; P = 0.106). CONCLUSIONS Ten percent of SCAD patients were men. Men were younger and more likely to have a physical trigger but were less likely to have FMD, depression, or an emotional trigger. Men had less recurrent chest pain but no significant difference in MACE.

Abstract
Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) can manifest outside of its classic presentation with unusual pathology. In the present report, we have described a case of an older male patient with aortic degeneration related to acute type B dissection who had required emergent left carotid-subclavian transposition and aortic stenting. Intraoperatively, his axillary artery FMD led to acute upper extremity ischemia. The patient was treated with classic maneuvers, including balloon angioplasty, reflecting the best practices in vascular surgery. We have also discussed the diagnosis, classification, and management of FMD.

Abstract
Mesenteric artery dissection (D) and wall-thickening (WT) are rare vasculopathies that can lead to serious complications. This is a single center analysis of all patients evaluated for mesenteric arterial (celiac, superior (SMA) and/or inferior mesenteric (IMA)) D and/or WT from January 1, 2000, to January 31, 2020 at our hospital. Among the 101 included patients, the average age was 55.6 ± 13.6 years, mostly affecting men (62%). There were 20 celiac artery D, 8 WT, 15 D with WT, 15 SMA D, 7 WT, 8 D with WT, one IMA D, two WT, and 25 with multiple arterial involvement. Primary etiologies included segmental arterial mediolysis (SAM) (n = 17), isolated D (n = 17), localized vasculitis of the gastrointestinal tract (LVGT) (n = 16), fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) (n = 13), extension of thoracoabdominal aortic D (n = 12), and trauma (n = 12). Most (71%) patients presented with abdominal pain. Hypertension (55%), hyperlipidemia (33%) and tobacco use (31%) were prevalent. Management included conservative (22%), medical (47%), endovascular (19%), and/or open repair (12%) with high in-hospital survival (98%) and symptom relief (73%). Our paper complements the scarce literature addressing the diagnosis and management of rare mesenteric vasculopathies. Most patients improved with conservative management, reserving endovascular or surgical interventions for symptomatic patients with more complicated presentations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the clinical presentation of fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) and its generalized character has been previously described in adults, data on FMD in children are limited. METHOD In this study, we aimed to assess visceral artery involvement in pediatric FMD patients with documented renal artery stenosis (RAS) and renovascular hypertension (RVH) in comparison with healthy individuals. We retrospectively analyzed the results of angiographic studies of 16 patients with a median age of 13.9 years (10 girls) in comparison with 16 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. RESULTS Out of the 16 FMD patients, 10 (63%) had stenotic lesions identifiable only in renal arteries, whereas six (37%) had additional stenoses in other vascular beds - in the celiac trunk (four patients), superior mesenteric artery (four patients), inferior mesenteric artery (one patient), splenic artery (one patient), common hepatic artery (three patients), and abdominal aorta (one patient). The comparison of ostial diameters of vessels, in which no periostial narrowing, stents, or occlusions were found, revealed that patients with FMD had a significantly smaller diameter of the celiac trunk (P = 0.017), splenic arteries (P = 0.007), and common hepatic artery (P = 0.026) than their age- and sex-matched healthy peers. CONCLUSION We found that 69% of children with RVH caused by FMD had clinically silent stenoses or tortuosity of visceral arteries. The results of our study suggest that pediatric FMD is a generalized arterial condition, and the patients may need screening for both renal as well as nonrenal manifestations of the disease.

Abstract
We report the case of 39-year-old Caucasian man presenting in emergency department with new onset of severe hypertension with hypokalaemia eight weeks after renal colic. Patient was referred to a hypertension unit for further investigation. Hormonal analysis confirmed secondary aldosteronism and slightly impaired kidney function. Imaging revealed smaller right kidney, 'string of beads appearance' of distal part of right renal artery, a short zone of dissection and renal infarction. Renal scintigraphy showed significant blood flow reduction and severe functional damage of the right kidney. Despite multidrug antihypertensive treatment patient's hypertension was resistant and target organ damage evolved. After initial patient's refusal, he was later successfully treated with laparoscopic simple nephrectomy. Histopathological analysis confirmed renal artery dissection and medial fibroplasia. Thereafter, hypertension was controlled with trandalopril monotherapy. This is a first case report of the patient with renovascular multifocal fibromuscular dysplasia, dissection and renal infarction whose diagnosis of the disease was confirmed by angiography and histopathologic analysis. Resistant hypertension was successfully treated with nephrectomy.

Abstract
Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a known cause of pulsatile tinnitus that can, on rare occasion, evolve into an incapacitating condition. It is a noninflammatory and nonatherosclerotic arteriopathy of unknown cause that affects medium-sized vessels, such as the carotid and renal arteries, occurring mainly in women. We describe a 72-year-old woman suffering from pulsatile tinnitus refractory to medical treatment who was successfully treated with Casper stent in the carotid artery. The different treatment strategies published in the literature were reviewed.

Abstract
Background Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a nonatherosclerotic arterial disease that has a variable presentation including pulsatile tinnitus (PT). The frequency and characteristics of PT in FMD are not well understood. The objective of this study was to evaluate the frequency of PT in FMD and compare characteristics between patients with and without PT. Methods and Results Data were queried from the US Registry for FMD from 2009 to 2020. The primary outcomes were frequency of PT among the FMD population and prevalence of baseline characteristics, signs/symptoms, and vascular bed involvement in patients with and without PT. Of 2613 patients with FMD who were included in the analysis, 972 (37.2%) reported PT. Univariable analysis and multivariable logistic regression were performed to explore factors associated with PT. Compared with those without PT, patients with PT were more likely to have involvement of the extracranial carotid artery (90.0% versus 78.6%; odds ratio, 1.49; P=0.005) and to have higher prevalence of other neurovascular signs/symptoms including headache (82.5% versus 62.7%; odds ratio, 1.82; P<0.001), dizziness (44.9% versus 22.9%; odds ratio, 2.01; P<0.001), and cervical bruit (37.5% versus 15.8%; odds ratio, 2.73; P<0.001) compared with those without PT. Conclusions PT is common among patients with FMD. Patients with FMD who present with PT have higher rates of neurovascular signs/symptoms, cervical bruit, and involvement of the extracranial carotid arteries. The coexistence of the 2 conditions should be recognized, and providers who evaluate patients with PT should be aware of FMD as a potential cause.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD), a nonatherosclerotic arterial disease, can cause pain and vascular complications. The aim of this study was to examine the impact of FMD symptoms and complications on quality of life, depression, anxiety, and self-rated health. DESIGN This was a cross-sectional, correlational study. METHODS Participants were adults with a diagnosis of FMD. Quality of life (36-Item Short Form Health Survey), anxiety and depression (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System [PROMIS®]), self-rated health question, and symptom/complication questionnaires were mailed to patients with FMD. Scores were compared with symptoms and complications. Multivariable linear models were fit for symptoms and survey scores. Ordinal regression was used for self-rated health. Backwards selection was run for each model. Alpha of 0.05 and 95% confidence intervals were used. RESULTS Of the 162 (275 total; 47.8%) patients who returned surveys (156 female), 130 had carotid or vertebral artery involvement (80.2%). Migraine (p < .001), neck pain (p = .036), and flank pain (p = .025) were associated with decrease in Mental Component scores. Migraine (p = .002) and neck pain (p = .023) were associated with lower Physical Component scores. Patients reporting abdominal pain compared with those without had 4.88 points higher depression. Abdominal pain (p = .031) and pulsatile tinnitus (p = .011) were associated with greater anxiety. Migraine was associated with (p = .002) lower self-rated health. Participants with history of stroke/transient ischemic attack had 2.42 (1.08, 5.46; p = .033) times the odds of poor self-rated health compared with those without stroke/transient ischemic attack. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with FMD, presence of pain and history of vascular complications were related to lower quality of life and self-rated health.

Abstract
Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a non-atherosclerotic vascular disease that may involve medium-sized muscular arteries throughout the body. The majority of FMD patients are women. Although a variety of genetic, mechanical, and hormonal factors play a role in the pathogenesis of FMD, overall, its cause remains poorly understood. It is probable that the pathogenesis of FMD is linked to a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Extensive studies have correlated the arterial lesions of FMD to histopathological findings of arterial fibrosis, cellular hyperplasia, and distortion of the abnormal architecture of the arterial wall. More recently, the vascular phenotype of lesions associated with FMD has been expanded to include arterial aneurysms, dissections, and tortuosity. However, in the absence of a string of beads or focal stenosis, these lesions do not suffice to establish the diagnosis. While FMD most commonly involves renal and cerebrovascular arteries, involvement of most arteries throughout the body has been reported. Increasing evidence highlights that FMD is a systemic arterial disease and that subclinical alterations can be found in non-affected arterial segments. Recent significant progress in FMD-related research which has led to improved understandings of the disease's clinical manifestations, natural history, epidemiology, and genetics. Ongoing work continues to focus on FMD genetics and proteomics, physiological effects of FMD on cardiovascular structure and function, and novel imaging modalities and blood-based biomarkers that can be used to identify subclinical FMD. It is also hoped that the next decade will bring the development of multi-centred and potentially international clinical trials to provide comparative effectiveness data to inform the optimal management of patients with FMD.

Abstract
Fibromuscular dysplasia is a nonatherosclerotic, under-recognized disorder primarily seen in middle-aged women. It can lead to several complications, such as hypertension, headaches, dissections, aneurysms, myocardial infarctions, and cerebrovascular accidents, to name a few. This article provides a comprehensive review of current literature on epidemiology, etiology, diagnosis, treatment, and long-term surveillance and fibromuscular dysplasia management. In addition, it renders the role of education and prevention for patients living with this condition and family screening. Lastly, it emphasizes the importance of a comprehensive multidisciplinary care model and patient input, given the complexity of this disease and its systemic presence and protean manifestations.

Abstract
The authors present the current data on the classification, epidemiology, etiology, neurological manifestations, prognosis, diagnosis, and treatment of patients with fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD). The review is based on the selection of publications by searching PubMed for keywords from the first sources until March 2019. FMD is a segmental non-atherosclerotic and non-inflammatory disease of large- and medium-caliber arteries leading to their stenosis. The disease occurs mostly in women (90%), and manifests itself in the 5th decade of life. In the cerebrovascular form of FMD, the extracranial internal carotid artery and the vertebral artery are usually affected. Diagnosis is based on the identification of alternation of narrowing and dilation of arteries using angiography (the string of beads sign (multifocal form)). Neurological manifestations include headache, tinnitus, and ischemic stroke, usually due to the dissection or stenosis, rarely, intracerebral or subarachnoid hemorrhages. The prognosis in most cases is favorable, relapses of strokes are rare. Treatment includes antiplatelet agents, if they are ineffective to prevent recurrence of ischemic stroke, endovascular treatment is carried out. Approaches to the treatment of intracranial aneurysms do not differ from those in patients without FMD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fibromuscular Dysplasia (FMD) is a rare non-atherosclerotic non-inflammatory vascular disease associated with arterial aneurysms and dissections. The epidemiology of FMD is not well understood. We sought to characterize the epidemiology of FMD utilizing a large aggregated electronic medical record database. METHODS We used a commercial database (Explorys, IBM Watson), which aggregates data from electronic health records from 26 major integrated healthcare systems in the United States. Fibromuscular dysplasia cases were identified using a unique systemized nomenclature of medical terminology (SNOMED CT) term. We calculated the overall and age-, race-, and sex-based prevalence of FMD, and evaluated sex and race-specific differences in manifestations. RESULTS A total of 40,566,670 individuals were active in the database from January 2015 to January 2020. Of these, 4860 had a diagnosis of FMD with an overall prevalence of 12.0 cases per 100,000 individuals. The majority of patients with FMD were female (n=4130, 85.0%), Caucasian (n=3960, 80.5%) and adults aged 18 to 65 years (n=2610, 53.7%). FMD was more common in women (prevalence 18.4 per 100,000) than men (4.0 per 100,000) and among Caucasians (15.8 per 100,000) than African Americans (11.2 per 100,000). Men and African Americans with FMD were more likely to have traditional atherosclerotic risk factors (hypertension, diabetes mellitus type 2, smoking, obesity, hyperlipidemia, chronic kidney disease), and vascular manifestations (stroke, renal infarction, claudication), compared with women and Caucasians. Men with FMD were more likely to have dissection of aorta and renal artery as well as aneurysm of vertebral artery, coronary artery, aorta and iliac artery. African-Americans were more likely to have ruptured aortic aneurysms than Caucasians. CONCLUSIONS The overall prevalence of FMD in this large aggregated electronic medical record study is estimated at 12.0 per 100,000 persons. FMD is more common in women and Caucasians, with variable characteristics and manifestations.

Abstract
We report a case of a 38-year-old male diagnosed with fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) and a dissection of both common iliac arteries without aortic involvement. It was revealed after an inguinal hematoma and a pelvic pain, which are not the typical FMD presentation. Surgical treatment was performed after a rapid iliac growth in the first month control computed tomography angiography. Although the clinical course of this entity is relatively benign, rupture of the common iliac artery has also been described.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Visceral artery dissection with otherwise normal-appearing arteries (VADNA), diagnosed on imaging and suggestive of segmental arterial mediolysis, is a poorly understood disease entity. Study objectives were to define the clinical features, management, and outcomes of patients with VADNA compared with patients with fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD). METHODS In this single-center retrospective cohort study, consecutive patients with a diagnosis of VADNA or FMD evaluated in the Mayo Clinic Gonda Vascular Center (January 1, 2000-April 1, 2017) were identified. Patient demographics, symptom presentation, management, composite adverse arterial events (recurrent arterial dissection, stroke or transient ischemic attack, myocardial infarction, mesenteric or renal infarction, or need for revascularization), and overall survival were compared between VADNA and FMD patients. RESULTS There were 103 VADNA patients (age [mean ± standard deviation], 51.7 ± 11.0 years; 27.9% female) and 248 FMD controls (49.8 ± 8.9 years; 81.8% female) identified. The most common symptom for VADNA patients was abdominal or flank pain (80.6%). For FMD, chest pain, headache, and dizziness were more frequent presenting complaints. The median follow-up was longer for VADNA patients (42 months; interquartile range, 9-76 months) compared with FMD patients (19 months; interquartile range, 0.6-52 months; P < .001). During this time interval, there were twofold more composite arterial events in the VADNA group compared with the FMD group (17% vs 8.1%; P = .01). This difference was primarily driven by recurrent dissections. All-cause mortality was low and similar for both groups (3.8% vs 0.4%; P = .10). CONCLUSIONS VADNA patients carry a higher risk of recurrent arterial events compared with those with FMD. This difference was primarily driven by recurrent dissections.

Abstract
AIMS Since December 2015, the European/International Fibromuscular Dysplasia (FMD) Registry enrolled 1022 patients from 22 countries. We present their characteristics according to disease subtype, age and gender, as well as predictors of widespread disease, aneurysms and dissections. METHODS AND RESULTS All patients diagnosed with FMD (string-of-beads or focal stenosis in at least one vascular bed) based on computed tomography angiography, magnetic resonance angiography, and/or catheter-based angiography were eligible. Patients were predominantly women (82%) and Caucasians (88%). Age at diagnosis was 46 ± 16 years (12% ≥65 years old), 86% were hypertensive, 72% had multifocal, and 57% multivessel FMD. Compared to patients with multifocal FMD, patients with focal FMD were younger, more often men, had less often multivessel FMD but more revascularizations. Compared to women with FMD, men were younger, had more often focal FMD and arterial dissections. Compared to younger patients with FMD, patients ≥65 years old had more often multifocal FMD, lower estimated glomerular filtration rate and more atherosclerotic lesions. Independent predictors of multivessel FMD were age at FMD diagnosis, stroke, multifocal subtype, presence of aneurysm or dissection, and family history of FMD. Predictors of aneurysms were multivessel and multifocal FMD. Predictors of dissections were age at FMD diagnosis, male gender, stroke, and multivessel FMD. CONCLUSIONS The European/International FMD Registry allowed large-scale characterization of distinct profiles of patients with FMD and, more importantly, identification of a unique set of independent predictors of widespread disease, aneurysms and dissections, paving the way for targeted screening, management, and follow-up of FMD.

Abstract
This article is a comprehensive document on the diagnosis and management of fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) which was commissioned by the Working Group 'Hypertension and the Kidney' of the European Society of Hypertension (ESH) and the Society for Vascular Medicine (SVM). This document updates previous consensus documents/scientific statements on FMD published in 2014 with full harmonization of the position of European and US experts. In addition to practical consensus-based clinical recommendations, including a consensus protocol for catheter-based angiography and percutaneous angioplasty for renal FMD, the document also includes the first analysis of the European/International FMD Registry and provides updated data from the US Registry for FMD. Finally, it provides insights on ongoing research programs and proposes future research directions for understanding this multifaceted arterial disease.

Abstract
Primary systemic vasculitides are rare diseases that may manifest similarly to more commonly encountered conditions. Depending on the size of the vessel affected (large vessel, medium vessel, or small vessel), different vasculitis mimics must be considered. Establishing the right diagnosis of a vasculitis mimic will prevent unnecessary immunosuppressive therapy.

Abstract
Segmental arterial mediolysis (SAM) is a rare but serious nonatherosclerotic, noninflammatory vasculopathy of unknown etiology that often results in dissection, aneurysm, occlusion, or stenosis of, primarily, the abdominal arteries. Current literature lacks consensus on diagnostic criteria and management options for SAM. This review summarizes 143 cases and aims to advance appropriate recognition and management of SAM. Literature review of all relevant SAM case studies from 2005 to 2018 yielded 126 individual SAM cases from 66 reports. We identified 17 additional SAM cases from our center, bringing our analysis to 143 patients. Patients with SAM were most commonly men (68%) in their 60s. Hypertension (43%), tobacco use (12%), and hyperlipidemia (12%) were common comorbidities. Abdominal pain (80%) and intraabdominal bleeding (50%) were the most common presenting symptoms. Computed tomography was the most frequently used imaging method (78%), and histology was available in 44% of cases. The most commonly affected vessels were the superior mesenteric (53%), hepatic (45%), celiac (36%), renal (26%), and splenic (25%) arteries with aneurysm (76%), dissection (61%), and arterial rupture (46%). Treatments included coil embolization (28%), abdominal organ surgery (24%), open arterial repair (21%), and medical management (20%). Case-specific treatment modalities yielded symptom relief in the vast majority (91%) of patients, with a mortality rate of 7%.

Abstract
Introduction: Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an increasingly appreciated cause of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and sudden cardiac death most often affecting young to middle-aged women with few conventional cardiovascular risk factors. Areas covered: A literature search was performed using MedLine, PubMed, and Google Scholar (dating to 04/30/2019). Authors review the key clinical features of SCAD and highlight what is known regarding its pathophysiology and associated factors. The relationship between SCAD and other systemic vasculopathies, notably fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is also discussed. Authors also mention the management of acute SCAD along with considerations for long term follow-up such as chest pain syndrome, extracoronary vasculopathy screening, and recurrent SCAD. Expert opinion: Our understanding regarding the association of SCAD and other arteriopathies such as FMD is anticipated to grow. In addition, progress is likely to be made in our efforts to predict recurrent SCAD risk and define potential preventative strategies, possibly through the incorporation of adjunctive imaging.

Abstract
Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is defined by focal narrowing of small and medium-sized arteries due to an idiopathic, noninflammatory, nonatherosclerotic vascular disease. The population-based prevalence of FMD remains unknown. Using the National Inpatient Sample database, we evaluated the prevalence, clinical presentation, mortality, and associated conditions of FMD from January 1, 2004, to September 30, 2015. Among 2,420 patients who presented with FMD, 2,086 (86.20%) of patients were female. The mean age was 55.18 ± 18.99 years in men and 63.37 ± 17.10 years in women. FMD patients most commonly presented with hypertension (67.3%), transient ischemic attack (3.7%), headache (2.1%), dizziness (1.1%), abdominal pain (0.6%), or hematuria (0.3%). In-hospital mortality of FMD patients was 0.74%. In conclusion, FMD is a rare condition with low in-hospital mortality that may be considered among female patients presenting with hypertension.

Abstract
This article is a comprehensive document on the diagnosis and management of fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD), which was commissioned by the working group ‘Hypertension and the Kidney’ of the European Society of Hypertension (ESH) and the Society for Vascular Medicine (SVM). This document updates previous consensus documents/scientific statements on FMD published in 2014 with full harmonization of the position of European and US experts. In addition to practical consensus-based clinical recommendations, including a consensus protocol for catheter-based angiography and percutaneous angioplasty for renal FMD, the document also includes the first analysis of the European/International FMD Registry and provides updated data from the US Registry for FMD. Finally, it provides insights on ongoing research programs and proposes future research directions for understanding this multifaceted arterial disease.

Abstract
RATIONALE Iliac arterial fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) was rarely reported and its demographic, clinical, and imaging features have not been precisely described resulting in uncertain therapeutic methods. PATIENT CONCERNS A 31-year-old man was referred because of 3-month-ago onset hypertension, low serum potassium, and a small-sized right kidney with normal renal artery under ultrasound examination. This patient was suspected of primary aldosteronism, whereas spirolactone was poorly effective. DIAGNOSIS Contrast-enhanced computed tomographic angiography (CTA) and three-dimensional reconstruction of the whole aorta discovered an aneurysm from the right common iliac artery (CIA) to the internal iliac artery, consistent with a left CIA dissection and a remarkable right renal artery aneurysm before a stenosis. Iliac and renal arteries FMD were then confirmed through digital subtraction angiography (DSA). INTERVENTION Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) of right renal artery was operated and a stent was deployed in left CIA. OUTCOMES This patient was normotensive, asymptomatic, and free from recurrence without any antihypertensive agents at an 8-month follow-up. LESSONS To our knowledge, this is the first bilateral common and internal iliac arterial FMD case in China, with unique asymptomatic dissection, aneurysm, and renovascular hypertension. Screening for secondary hypertension in young population and for iliac or renal arterial FMD is therefore suggested with CTA and reconstruction from neck to pelvis and MRA in those with intracranial disorders. Among youth FMD, the potential of PTRA in renovascular hypertension out of antihypertensive drugs and stent in dissection is novelly indicated.

Abstract
Importance The prevalence of intracranial aneurysm in patients with fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is uncertain. Objective To examine the prevalence of intracranial aneurysm in women diagnosed with FMD. Design, Setting, and Participants This cross-sectional study included 669 women with intracranial imaging registered in the US Registry for Fibromuscular Dysplasia, an observational disease-based registry of patients with FMD confirmed by vascular imaging and currently enrolling at 14 participating US academic centers. Registry enrollment began in 2008, and data were abstracted in September 2015. Patients younger than 18 years at the time of FMD diagnosis were excluded. Imaging reports of all patients with reported internal carotid, vertebral, or suspected intracranial artery aneurysms were reviewed. Only saccular or broad-based aneurysms 2 mm or larger in greatest dimension were included. Extradural aneurysms in the internal carotid artery were included; fusiform aneurysms, infundibulae, and vascular segments with uncertainty were excluded. Main Outcomes and Measures Percentage of women with FMD with intracranial imaging who had an intracranial aneurysm. Results Of 1112 female patients in the registry, 669 (60.2%) had undergone intracranial imaging at the time of enrollment (mean [SD] age at enrollment, 55.6 [10.9] years). Of the 669 patients included in the analysis, 86 (12.9%; 95% CI, 10.3%-15.9%) had at least 1 intracranial aneurysm. Of these 86 patients, 25 (53.8%) had more than 1 intracranial aneurysm. Intracranial aneurysms 5 mm or larger occurred in 32 of 74 patients (43.2%), and 24 of 128 intracranial aneurysms (18.8%) were in the posterior communicating or posterior arteries. The presence of intracranial aneurysm did not vary with location of extracranial FMD involvement. A history of smoking was significantly associated with intracranial aneurysm: 42 of 78 patients with intracranial aneurysm (53.8%) had a smoking history vs 163 of 564 patients without intracranial aneurysm (28.9%; P < .001). Conclusions and Relevance The prevalence of intracranial aneurysm in women diagnosed with FMD is significantly higher than reported in the general population. Although the clinical benefit of screening for intracranial aneurysm in patients with FMD has yet to be proven, these data lend support to the recommendation that all patients with FMD undergo intracranial imaging if not already performed.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Takayasu arteritis, fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD), spontaneous arterial dissection, Raynaud's phenomenon, and chilblains are vascular conditions that are associated with an increased predisposition in women and are often underdiagnosed. Takayasu arteritis has an incidence rate of 2.6 cases per million individuals per year in the USA and predominantly affects women of childbearing age. HLA-B5 genetic locus is linked with Takayasu arteritis susceptibility. Methods to determine active disease are limiting; currently utilized clinical and imaging findings and laboratory tests are of limited value for this purpose. Pregnancy poses risks for maternal and fetal complications, and these patients need additional monitoring and care before and after conception. Controlling hypertension and immunosuppression using steroids, biological and non-biological immunosuppressants, are key components of managing patients with this arteritis. FMD commonly affects middle-aged, white females. Its true prevalence is unknown. Renal and cerebrovascular beds are the most frequently involved vascular beds. Its clinical presentation varies from no symptoms to catastrophic events. Controlling vascular risk factors, periodic surveillance, and revascularization when indicated are important factors in FMD management. Spontaneous arterial dissections are less common, but are an important cause of morbidity and mortality in specific populations. Cervicocephalic dissection causes 10-20% of the strokes in young adults, and coronary artery dissection is the culprit in almost one fourth of young women presenting with acute myocardial infarction. Early diagnosis is key to improving prognosis in these patients, as the majority of patients have spontaneous resolution of the dissection with conservative management alone. Increased clinician awareness of the presentation features and angiographic findings are imperative for early diagnosis. Raynaud's phenomenon and chilblains are cold- or stress-induced cutaneous lesions, commonly involving distal extremities. Secondary causes such as connective tissue diseases and malignancies must be thoroughly excluded during evaluation of these conditions. Cold avoidance, systemic and local warming, and oral vasodilator therapy are the mainstays of therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a systemic, nonatherosclerotic, noninflammatory vasculopathy that is often overlooked by clinicians. Clinical clues could help in selecting patients for further evaluation for the presence of FMD. Recently, it was observed that tortuosity of the coronary arteries is often present in patients with FMD-related abnormalities of the coronary artery. Therefore, we wondered if the presence of coronary tortuosity might provide a clinical clue to the diagnosis of extracoronary FMD. CASES We describe 5 cases of FMD in whom diagnostic studies for FMD were initiated because of the presence of coronary tortuosity. FMD was found in all 5 patients in the renal and/or cervical arteries. CONCLUSIONS Our 5 cases suggest that exertional chest pain in the presence of coronary tortuosity may be helpful in selecting patients for further evaluation for the presence of FMD. Further research should focus on the prevalence of FMD among patients with coronary tortuosity and whether the presence of additional clinical clues (such as the presence of hypertension at young age or pulsatile tinnitus) next to coronary tortuosity can predict the risk for FMD in individual patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a noninflammatory arterial disease that predominantly affects women. The arterial manifestations may include beading, stenosis, aneurysm, dissection, or tortuosity. OBJECTIVES This study compared the frequency, location, and outcomes of FMD patients with aneurysm and/or dissection to those of patients without. METHODS The U.S. Registry for FMD involves 12 clinical centers. This analysis included clinical history, diagnostic, and therapeutic procedure results for 921 FMD patients enrolled in the registry as of October 17, 2014. RESULTS Aneurysm occurred in 200 patients (21.7%) and dissection in 237 patients (25.7%); in total, 384 patients (41.7%) had an aneurysm and/or a dissection by the time of FMD diagnosis. The extracranial carotid, renal, and intracranial arteries were the most common sites of aneurysm; dissection most often occurred in the extracranial carotid, vertebral, renal, and coronary arteries. FMD patients with dissection were younger at presentation (48.4 vs. 53.5 years of age, respectively; p < 0.0001) and experienced more neurological symptoms and other end-organ ischemic events than those without dissection. One-third of aneurysm patients (63 of 200) underwent therapeutic intervention for aneurysm repair. CONCLUSIONS Patients with FMD have a high prevalence of aneurysm and/or dissection prior to or at the time of FMD diagnosis. Patients with dissection were more likely to experience ischemic events, and a significant number of patients with dissection or aneurysm underwent therapeutic procedures for these vascular events. Because of the high prevalence and associated morbidity in patients with FMD who have an aneurysm and/or dissection, it is recommended that every patient with FMD undergo one-time cross-sectional imaging from head to pelvis with computed tomographic angiography or magnetic resonance angiography.

Abstract
Fibromuscular Dysplasia (FMD) is a sporadic non-atherosclerotic disease. FMD has been established in nearly every arterial bed. However, the most frequent arteries affected are the renal and carotid arteries. Disease presentation may vary broadly, depending upon the arterial bed complication and the severity of illness. Hypertension, particularly resistant type, headache and dizziness are the most common presentations. String of beads appearance in angiographic views due to post-stenotic aneurysms is the characteristic view. It is most commonly described in young aged females; but in rare male cases has also been reported. Moreover, balloon angioplasty is standard and effective therapy for FMD. We present a young 28-year-old man who was referred for evaluation of resistant hypertension for nearly 3 years without comprehensive workup. The patient underwent renal artery angiography which confirmed beading narrowing of the right renal artery with significant stenosis at mid portion compatible with FMD; and balloon angioplasty was done. This case highlights that FMD should be kept in mind as a rare cause of resistant hypertension in young males; although it is most common in young females.

Clinical characteristics and treatment of renal artery fibromuscular dysplasia with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty: a long-term follow-up study. Clin Res Cardiol 2016; 105:930-937. [PMID: 27270759 DOI: 10.1007/s00392-016-1001-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2016] [Accepted: 05/27/2016] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Renal artery fibromuscular dysplasia (RAFMD) is a non-atherosclerotic cause of renal artery stenosis often affecting the young. Percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty (PTRA) is the treatment of choice but there are few studies of the outcome of the procedure. METHODS This retrospective analysis included 64 patients (56.2 % female; mean age at diagnosis, 28.0 years) with RAFMD who underwent PTRA between November 2003 and August 2015. Technical and clinical success rates and restenosis rates were evaluated. RESULTS Seventy-six procedures were performed on 64 RAFMD patients. Technical success was 96.9 %, as defined by <30 % residual stenosis, with stent placement required in 11 patients (17.2 %). In the short term (1 month), the majority (79.7 %) had an immediate clinical benefit, with cure of hypertension in 35.9 %, and improvement in hypertension and a lower requirement for antihypertensive medications in 43.8 %. In the long term (mean, 47.5 months; range, 5-141 months), the survival rate was 96.9 %, freedom from restenosis was 84.4 %, and 76.6 % of patients showed a sustained clinical benefit (cure rate 40.6 %, improvement rate 35.9 %). Eight patients were treated with a second procedure and two had a third procedure, with half of these patients showing an improvement in hypertension. CONCLUSION PTRA for symptomatic RAFMD is safe and clinically successful. More than half of patients experience an immediate clinical benefit with sustained long-term effects. For patients with restenosis, there was a good response to a second PTRA.
