atherosclerosis
{i} disease characterized by cholesterol deposits in the arteries
A condition that exists when too much cholesterol builds up in the blood and accumulates in the walls of the blood vessels
A disease process that leads to the accululation of fat, cholesterol and other substances, usually termed plaque, within the blood vessel walls
the disease of accumulated plaque (built-up waxy substance) in the blood vessels
A type of arteriosclerosis, atherosclerosis is a complex process of thickening and narrowing of the arterial walls caused by the accumulation of lipids, primarily cholesterol, in the inner layer of an artery With the addition of other debris and connective tissue, blood flow is restricted and can lead to a heart attack or a stroke
The deposition of materials along the arterial walls, a type of arteriosclerosis
-A gradual process that occurs when cholesterol collects under the inner lining of artery walls due to damage from uncontrolled high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes, or high blood cholesterol The deposits (cholesterol plaques) eventually result in fibrosis and calcification, which may narrow or block the artery and hinder blood flow Also called "hardening of the arteries," the disease can produce angina pectoris, heart attack, or stroke
A narrowing of the arteries, which become clogged by fatty plaques which impede blood flow
Narrowing of the coronary arteries caused by cholesterol deposits along arterial walls
Hardening of the arteries Fatty deposits called plaques form on the inner lining of the lumen The narrowed passageway that results decreases the flow of oxygen-rich blood through the heart, which can increase the risk for angina
a type of artery desease characterized by patchynodular thickenings of the inner walls of thearteries, especially at branch points This is the major type of arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries)
The clogging or hardening of arteries or blood vessels caused by plaques (accumulations of fatty deposits, usually cholesterol)
clogging, narrowing, and hardening of the body's large arteries and medium-sized blood vessels Atherosclerosis can lead to stroke, heart attack, eye problems, and kidney problems
The process whereby abnormal deposits of lipids, cholesterol and plaque build up, leading to narrowing or blockage in arteries taking blood to the hand, foot head or vital organs Also called arteriosclerosis
A disease state characterized by fatty deposits in the arteries
—The progressive narrowing and hardening of the arteries over time, known to occur to some degree with aging; but other risk factors (such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes and family history for atherosclerotic disease) that accelerate this process have been identified
fatty coating on the inside walls of the arteries It "furs" them up and narrows them This makes the blood flow too slowly
the build up of cholesterol and other fat deposits, known as plaque, on the inner layer of an artery
a stage of arteriosclerosis involving fatty deposits (atheromas) inside the arterial walls
