Where is the most common location for plaque development?

Plaque in your arteries is very bad - it can contribute to clots, which in turn can cause heart attacks, loss of blood flow to muscles, or other health conditions. There is not one place in the body where this type of plaque is most common. Any plaque in the arteries, no matter where it is, can cause problems. Plaque closer to the heart can cause more fatal problems than, say, plaque in the legs.
