This presentation will examine Cardiovascular Pathology, with a focus on cardiovascular pathology, including diseases of the heart and blood vessels, their global impact, and the significance of understanding these conditions. We’ll discuss the mechanisms, clinical presentations, and management of major diseases such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, valvular disorders, heart failure, myocardial infarction, and congenital heart defects. The presentation emphasizes early recognition, risk factor modification, and timely intervention to improve patient outcomes. Advances in diagnostics and therapies offer hope, but ongoing awareness and prevention remain essential.. We will explore cardiovascular pathology, focusing on diseases of the heart and blood vessels. As a leading cause of illness and death globally, understanding cardiovascular disease is vital for clinicians and patients. The cardiovascular system includes the heart and vessels transporting nutrients, oxygen, and waste. Diseases such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, heart failure, valvular diseases, and congenital defects can lead to complications like myocardial infarction, stroke, or sudden cardiac death. This lecture will discuss the mechanisms, clinical presentations, diagnosis, and management of major cardiovascular diseases. Atherosclerosis is a vascular disease marked by lipid-rich plaque build-up in arterial walls, starting with endothelial dysfunction
