tumor leading to new blood vessel formation

question 108
your patient has a \pericardial\ tamponade. the term pericardial indicates that the tamponade is located in the:
double sac enclosing the heart
great blood vessels of the heart
heart muscle
inside the serous layer of the heart

Explanation:

• Question 106: The Greek word septikos means poison or putrefying. Septicemia refers to the presence of pathogenic organisms or their toxins in the blood, which is related to the concept of poisoning or putrefaction.
• Question 107: Stenosis means narrowing (which can cause blockage), infarction is tissue death due to lack of blood supply (often from blockage), and necrosis is cell death. So, a blockage (from stenosis) leading to tissue death (necrosis, infarction) is the correct relationship.
• Question 108: The pericardium is the double - sac structure that encloses the heart. Pericardial tamponade is related to this structure.

Answer:

• Question 106: poison or putrefying
• Question 107: blockage leading to tissue death
• Question 108: double sac enclosing the heart
