A type of blood vessel disorder that is included in the general category of atherosclerosisBegins as soft deposits of fat that harden with age
Referred to as “hardening of arteries”

Etiology and pathophysiologyPrimary reason for insufficient blood flow is narrowing of coronary arteries by atherosclerosis• For ischemia to occur, the artery is usually 75% or more stenosed
