Coronary heart disease
Coronary artery disease (atherosclerotic heart disease) is due to accumulation of atheromatous plaques in the coronary vessel walls. Coronary arteries are the major blood vessels that supply the heart with blood, oxygen and nutrients. Fatty streaks or plaques will narrow the coronary arteries and reduce the blood flow to the heart. Because coronary artery disease often develops over decades, it can go virtually unnoticed until it produces a heart attack.
