Given her last physical exam results, Rashidah’s physician believes
she has likely had undiagnosed atherosclerosis for years. Briefly
describe the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis.
Selec Atherosclerosis is the buildup of plaque, which contains fats and cholesterol, on
ted the inner layers of the arterial walls. Instead of being smooth and elastic, the
Answ layers become thickened and irregular with the lumen of the artery becoming
er: narrower. This leads to reduced circulation of blood and can lead to elevated
blood pressure.
