There are two main arteries that feed the heart. They are called the coronary arteries. These are the arteries that receive bypass surgery. The number of bypasses is determined by the number of blockages, not the number of arteries.
The arteries that actually serve the heart itelf are known as coronary arteries.
Atherosclerosis primarily affects the arteries by causing plaque buildup in their walls, leading to narrowing and hardening of the arteries. This condition can affect various organs throughout the body, including the heart, brain, kidneys, and legs.
Blood is pumped around the circulatory system by the heart.
Atherosclerotic blockages most often occur in the coronary arteries that supply blood to the heart muscle, leading to conditions such as heart attacks. They can also occur in the carotid arteries supplying blood to the brain, causing strokes, and in the peripheral arteries of the legs, leading to peripheral artery disease.

The renal arteries connect the kidney and the heart.
The pushing force of the heart is greater in arteries than in veins. The arteries are closer to the heart itself.
Yes, the heart pumps blood into arteries. Arteries carry blood away from the heart.
