Mikrotromboz

Mikrotromboz refers to the formation of small blood clots, or thrombi, within the small blood vessels of the body, often called microcirculation. These tiny clots can impede blood flow, leading to a variety of symptoms and potentially organ damage depending on the location and extent of the blockage. While the exact mechanisms can vary, factors contributing to mikrotromboz include endothelial dysfunction, which is damage to the inner lining of blood vessels, and an imbalance in the body's clotting and anti-clotting factors. Certain medical conditions are associated with an increased risk of developing mikrotromboz. These can include sepsis, a life-threatening response to infection, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), a serious bleeding and clotting disorder, and various autoimmune diseases. Symptoms of mikrotromboz are diverse and depend on which organs are affected. They might include neurological deficits if the brain is involved, kidney dysfunction, or skin lesions. Diagnosis often involves a combination of clinical presentation, blood tests to assess clotting parameters, and imaging studies to visualize the affected microvasculature. Treatment strategies aim to address the underlying cause, prevent further clot formation, and restore blood flow. This can involve anticoagulant medications, antiplatelet agents, and management of the primary condition.
