An atheroma (plaque) is a fatty material that builds up inside your arteries. It’s made of cholesterol, proteins and other substances that circulate in your blood. Atheromas grow over time and may lead to coronary artery disease, peripheral artery disease, heart attack or stroke.

2018年9月17日 · An atheroma is a buildup of plaque in your arteries. We'll tell you how common this is and if there are steps you can take to prevent further damage.

动脉粥样硬化 （英語： atherosclerosis）或 粥样硬化，是动脉内膜因多种原因损伤后，内膜下积聚 脂质 、 复合糖类 并引发出血、血栓形成、纤维组织增生，使动脉管壁增厚、管腔缩小、血流受阻、管壁变硬和弹性减退的现象 [7][8]。 粥样斑块 （atheromatous plaque）或 粥瘤[9] （atheroma）则是动脉粥样硬化的典型病变，结构由中央含脂肪和钙的无定形粥样脂肪核（fatty core）及外覆的纤维帽（fibrous cap）组成 [10]。 在显微镜下，动脉内膜呈现黄色粥样改变， …

An atheroma, or atheromatous plaque, is an abnormal accumulation of material in the inner layer of an arterial wall. [1] [2] The material consists of mostly macrophage cells, [3] [4] or debris, containing lipids, calcium and a variable amount of fibrous connective tissue.

動脈粥樣硬化 （atheroma)是一組 動脈硬化 的 血管病 中常見的最重要的一種，其特點是受累 動脈 病變從內膜開始。 一般先有 脂質 和複合糖類積聚、 出血 及 血栓形成， 纖維 組織 增生 及 鈣質沉著，並有動脈中層的逐漸蛻變和 鈣化，病變常累及彈性及大中等 肌性動脈，一旦發展到足以阻塞動脈腔，則該動脈所供應的組織或器官將 缺血 或 壞死。 由於在 動脈內膜 積聚的脂質外觀呈黃色粥樣，因此稱為動脈粥樣硬化。 動脈粥樣硬化 就是動脈壁上沉積了一層像小米粥樣的 脂類， …

“This lesion (the atheroma), undoubtedly the most dangerous of all prethrombotic processes, has often been called an atheromatous abscess.” Meyer Friedman, [60] Atherosclerosis is characterized by the proliferation, then destruction of intimal fibrous tissue, resulting in the formation of an atheroma, as originally proposed by Virchow [39].

粥样斑块（atheromatous plaque ），亦称粥瘤(atheroma))，是纤维斑块深层组织因营养不良而发生的坏死、崩解，这些崩解物质与脂质混合而成为粥糜样物质，是AS典型病变。

粥样斑块（atheromatous plaque ）：亦称粥瘤(atheroma))。 肉眼观： 动脉内膜 面见灰黄色斑块，既向内膜表面隆起，又向深部压迫中膜。 切面见 纤维 帽的下方，有多量黄色粥糜样物。

Atheroma, also known as an atheromatous or atherosclerotic plaque, is an abnormal accumulation of fatty substances, cholesterol, cellular debris, and other materials within the walls of arteries. This buildup can lead to a thickening and hardening of the arterial walls, a condition known as atherosclerosis.

An atherosclerotic lesion comprised of lipids, connective tissue, leukocytes, and cellular debris that can develop within artery walls in the presence of certain risk factors (e.g., smoking, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia).
