A blood clot is called a Thrombosis a blockage of a blood vessel by a blood clot. It is most likely to happen where normal blood flow is disrupted by for example plaques of fatty atheromatous tissue in the walls of an artery or inflammation of the blood vessel. The clot eventually narrows or blocks the passage of blood causing the tissues beyond to be starved of oxygen and nutrients.
venous insufficiency
Two veins return deoxygenated blood to the right atrium. The superior vena cava returns blood from the head and upper body to the right atrium. The inferior vena cava returns blood from the legs and lower body to the right atrium.
The limbs (arms and legs) are proximal to the body's trunk.
