Resumen
Atherosclerosis is the pathogenic process that underlies the different clinical manifestations of cardiovascular disease. Through the progressive reduction of the diameter of the vessel lumen or the sudden development of a thrombus, the normal blood flow to the different tissues is obstructed, which can affect the heart (ischaemic heart disease), brain (stroke) or limbs (peripheral arterial disease). Atherosclerosis is now considered a chronic inflammatory process that precedes clinical manifestations by several decades. The initial process that promotes plaque development is the disruption of endothelial integrity and function. Plaque formation is caused by the accumulation of lipid particles in predisposed areas and is facilitated by processes of inflammation, necrosis, fibrosis, and calcification. Its development is closely linked to prolonged exposure to certain risk factors, which interact with other environmental factors, genes, and individual susceptibility. The disease usually progresses indolently over the individual's lifetime, until the progression of plaque causes it to destabilise and rupture, leading to ischaemia of the affected organ.
