This results in the reduction of lumen size of the artery & consequently the flow of blood is also reduced which ultimately leads to heart attack.

 

Arteriosclerosis:- It refer to the hardening of the arteries die to deposition & thickening. In the case of Arteriosclerosis, calcium salts precipitates with the cholesterol forming plaque.
