arteriosclerosis
Hardening, narrowing or loss of elasticity in arteries or blood vessels
arteriosclerosis (är-tîr´ê-o-skle-ro¹sîs), general term for a condition characterized by thickening, hardening, and loss of elasticity of the walls of the arteries In its most common form, atherosclerosis, fatty deposits, e g , CHOLESTEROL, build up on the inner artery walls; in some cases calcium deposits also form The blood vessels narrow, and blood flow decreases; THROMBOSIS, HEART DISEASE, and STROKE may result Surgical treatment is sometimes effective, but there is no specific cure A low-cholesterol diet and control of predisposing factors, such as HYPERTENSION, smoking, DIABETES, and obesity, are usually recommended 1
