| Zahn's infarct | A pseudoinfarct of the liver, consisting of an area of congestion with parenchymal atrophy but no necrosis; due to obstruction of a branch of the portal vein. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|
| striae of Zahn | Riblike markings seen by the naked eye on the surface of antemortem thrombi; they consist of a branching framework of platelets and fibrin separating the coagulated blood cells. Synonym: striae of Zahn. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Zahn, Friedrich | <person> German pathologist, 1845-1904. See: Zahn's infarct, lines of Zahn, striae of Zahn. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lines of Zahn | Riblike markings seen by the naked eye on the surface of antemortem thrombi; they consist of a branching framework of platelets and fibrin separating the coagulated blood cells. Synonym: striae of Zahn. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anaemic infarct | An infarct in which little or no bleeding into tissue spaces occurs when the blood supply is obstructed. Synonym: pale infarct, white infarct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bland infarct | An uninfected infarct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bone infarct | An area of bone tissue that has become necrotic as a result of loss of its arterial blood supply. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pale infarct | An infarct in which little or no bleeding into tissue spaces occurs when the blood supply is obstructed. Synonym: pale infarct, white infarct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| red infarct | An infarct red in colour from infiltration of blood from collateral vessels into the necrotic area. Synonym: haemorrhagic gangrene, red infarct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Roesler-Bressler infarct | Infarction involving the septum along with both inferior and anterior walls to make an H-or dumbbell-shaped configuration. Synonym: Roesler-Bressler infarct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| white infarct | An infarct in which little or no bleeding into tissue spaces occurs when the blood supply is obstructed. Synonym: pale infarct, white infarct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| multi-infarct dementia | <neurology> This form of dementia is caused by a number of strokes in the brain. These strokes can cause specific symptoms, depending on their severity and location and can cause general symptoms of dementia. MID cannot be treated, once the nerve cells die, they cannot be replaced. However, the underlying condition leading to strokes (for example, high blood pressure, diabetes) can be treated, which may help prevent further damage. Synonym: vascular dementia. (22 May 1997) |
| myocardial infarct imaging | <radiology> Tc-99m pyrophosphate (PYP) 20 mCi, peak abnormality 2-3 days, often falsely negative before 2 days, abnormal for 7-10 days, mechanism: calcium influx into ischemic cells, PYP incorporated into crystalline structure, analogous to hydroxyapatite see: nuclear cardiology (12 Dec 1998) |
| haemorrhagic infarct | An infarct red in colour from infiltration of blood from collateral vessels into the necrotic area. Synonym: haemorrhagic gangrene, red infarct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| septic infarct | An area of necrosis resulting from vascular obstruction due to emboli comprised of clumps of bacteria or infected material. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dementia, multi-infarct | Organic mental disorder caused by repetitive multiple cerebral infarcts which act cumulatively to produce dementia. Vascular disease is always presumed to be present. (12 Dec 1998) |
