Question 4/5

It is possible to feel the arteries :

FALSE

TRUE

Question 4/5

Try again !

Yes, it is called the pulse ! The pulse is the beating of the arteries produced by successive waves of blood projected from the heart (perceptible by touch, particularly on the inside of the wrist). In fact, the heart expels blood over a short period of time. This generates an increase in flow, causing the arteries to dilate when this change of flow passes through them. We can feel the dilatation !

Question 5/5

Arteries can be affected by aneurysms :

TRUE

FALSE

Question 5/5

Well done !

An aneurysm is an abnormal dilatation of an artery, forming a pouch. This usually occurs when the blood vessel wall becomes weakened and unable to maintain its normal shape. Aneurysms can develop in different parts of the body, but the most common occur in the main arteries that carry blood away from the heart, such as the aorta (the main artery connecting to the heart) or the cerebral arteries (in the brain). They can rupture, causing severe and potentially fatal internal bleeding.

Question 5/5

Try again !

An aneurysm is an abnormal dilatation of an artery or vein, forming a pouch. This usually occurs when the blood vessel wall becomes weakened and unable to maintain its normal shape. Aneurysms can develop in different parts of the body, but the most common occur in the main arteries that carry blood away from the heart, such as the aorta (the main artery connecting to the heart) or the cerebral arteries (in the brain).

Circulation

Arteries carry blood from the heart to the body's tissues, while veins carry blood from the tissues back to the heart.

https://lecorpshumain.fr/categories/anatomie/les-arteres

Composition

Arteries are under pressure from the heart, which pumps blood. To cope with this, artery walls are thick and elastic. Vein walls are thin and rigid.

Location

Arteries are located deeper in the body, while veins are on the surface.

A case of aneurysm

A 69-year-old man presented to hospital in June 1993 with a large abdominal volume and a history of smoking and serious illness. He presented with the largest aortic aneurysm ever recorded: 25 cm in diameter.
