title: Ultrastructural characteristics of peripheral arteriovenous and venous angiodysplasias.
abstract: Comparative histological and electron microscopic study of arteriovenous and venous angiodysplasias revealed specific features of their structure, presumably reflecting differences in their morphogenesis. Specific ultrastructural characteristics of angiodysplasias are modified shape of endotheliocytes, impaired structure of the basal membrane, and reduced count of pericytes.
