Plaque buildup inside arteries starts when the inner lining is damaged, allowing LDL cholesterol to slip into the vessel wall. Immune cells move in to clear the cholesterol but instead turn into foam cells, forming fatty streaks. Ongoing inflammation causes plaque to grow and harden as fibrous tissue forms over a core of fat and debris, narrowing blood flow. If a plaque ruptures, a blood clot can suddenly block the artery, leading to heart attacks or strokes. | Doctor ASKY

Atherosclerotic plaque can develop within a coronary artery over many years without causing symptoms. Lipids, cholesterol particles, inflammatory cells, and connective tissue accumulate beneath the inner lining of the vessel. As this material grows, it progressively narrows the arterial lumen and disrupts normal blood flow, even while remaining clinically silent. At a critical moment, the fibrous surface covering the plaque may rupture. This exposes highly reactive substances inside the plaque t

Excellent post from @yourheartdoc! Coronary plaque rupture. . This visual shows what is happening within a coronary artery during plaque rupture. This is the pathophysiologic mechanism of a myocardial infarction - or simply put - a heart attack. This is the cross section of a coronary artery. . 1️⃣ Over the course of years, atherosclerotic plaque builds up within the lumen of the artery. A major contributor is lipoprotein deposition via high LDL cholesterol levels. This is complemented by inflam

Atherosclerosis happens when fatty plaque starts collecting inside the walls of arteries, which are the tubes that carry oxygen rich blood through the body. Over many years this buildup makes the artery narrower and stiffer and it becomes harder for blood to move smoothly. When blood flow drops, organs get less oxygen and the artery becomes more sensitive to stress. If the plaque becomes irritated or breaks open, a blood clot can suddenly form and fully block the vessel which can cause a heart a
