What causes athermatous plaque?
Atherosclerosis is a buildup of plaque, cells, and fatty deposits in the walls of arteries that can get worst over time.
What is peripheral endarterectomy?
the surgical removal of fatty deposits, called plaque, from the walls of arteries other than those of the heart and brain.
What clogs arteries forming heart attacks?
Plaque clogs arteries. Plaque comes from a diet of fatty foods.
What heart disease is the result of reduced blood flow to the heart caused by the build-up of fatty deposits in the arteries?
Heart disease typically does not cause fatty deposits in the arteries. Rather the process is the other way around: an unhealthy diet high in fat and cholesterol causes a build up of fatty deposits, and these deposits lead to heart diseases such as Coronary Heart Disease.
What Is the result of reduced blood flow to the heart caused by the build up of fatty deposits in the arteries.?
Coronary Heart disease caused by atherosclerosis or the build-up of plaque on the inner walls of the arteries.
What heart disease is the result of reduced blood flow to the heart caused by the build-up of fatty deposits in the arteries.?
Coronary Heart disease caused by atherosclerosis or the build-up of plaque on the inner walls of the arteries.
What is the medical term meaning disease in which fatty deposits collect on the walls of the arteries?
Atherosclerosis is the condition in which fatty deposits collect on the walls of the arteries. These deposits may increase the risk of heart attack or stroke.
What is thought to be the major promoter of fatty plaque buildup in the coronary arteries?
The major promoter of fatty plaque buildup in the coronary arteries is high cholesterol. High cholesterol can be treated with dietary changes or medication.
What circulatory system disease characterized by fatty deposits?
Atheroma (Atherosclerosis) is a generalised thickening of arteries due to fatty deposits
What is the condition known as the atherosclerosis?
fatty plaque and cholesterol buildup inside arteries
How would deposits on the walls of arteries affect the flow of blood moving through the body?
ANSWER:The clogging of the arteries is caused by several factors related to coronary artery disease when fatty deposits of cholesterol and other substances stick to the arterial walls and create plaque. In response to plaque build-up, cells in your artery walls multiply and secrete additional substances that can worsen the state of clogged arteries. As plaque deposits grow, a condition called atherosclerosis results. This condition causes the arteries to narrow and harden. Arterial plaque can reduce blood flow or, in some instances, block the artery. Clogged arteries greatly increase the likelihood of heart attack, stroke, and even death.
What is coronary athrscl uns vessel?
coronary atherosclerosis of unspecified vessels. Atherosclerosis is where fatty deposits collect in the walls of arteries which can thicken and harder and eventually cause blockage (plaque build-up).
