This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: pathological calcification, adv atherosclerosis characterized by dystropic calcification: no Ca metabolic derangements, metastatic calcification: reflects Ca metabolic derangements occurs whenever there is hypercalcemia, dystropic calcification: no Ca metabolic derangements can be cause of organ dysfunction, hypercalcemia 4 causes are incrsd secretion of PTH (parathyroid hormone), dystropic calcification: no Ca metabolic derangements in areas of necrosis of any type, pathological calcification: abn deposition of Ca along w/ other minerals in dead, dying tissue dystropic calcification: no Ca metabolic derangements, hypercalcemia 4 causes are vit D-related disorders, metastatic calcification: reflects Ca metabolic derangements in throughout body, but principally IS tissues of vasculature, kidneys, lungs, and gastric mucosa, hypercalcemia 4 causes are destruction of bone, cause of organ dysfunction e.g. calcification of heart valves, causing aortic stenosis, hypercalcemia 4 causes are renal failure, pathological calcification: abn deposition of Ca along w/ other minerals in normal tissue metastatic calcification: reflects Ca metabolic derangements
