What is the medical term meaning throbbing of an artery?

Answer 1

Arteriorrhexis means rupture of an artery, but it is not commonly used.

The term most often used is "ruptured" but these can also be called "dissected" arteries. Dissected usually means that there is leakage of blood inside the layers of arterial tissue. However, if the vessel continues to tear all the way open, it can still be called dissection, but that would most often be called a "ruptured dissection".

"Aneurysms" are weakened areas in the walls of arteries that allow them to bulge out or "balloon", these also can rupture and are called a "ruptured aneurysm" or also a "dissected aneurysm" if that happens.
