Wha is the difference between peripheral arterial disease and peripheral venous disease? Peripheral Arterial Disease. Peripheral arterial disease, also called peripheral vascular disease, is a narrowing of the blood vessels (arteries). It mainly occurs in arteries that supply blood to the legs. The main symptom is pain in one or both legs when you walk.

Narrowed Artery Condition Often Goes Undiagnosed: Study THURSDAY, Jan. 19 (HealthDay News) -- Millions of Americans have an undiagnosed artery disorder that can lead to high blood pressure, stroke and aneurysms, a new study reveals. The disorder is fibromuscular dysplasia, an accumulation of fibrous tissues in the arteries that causes them to narrow. The condition can occur in any artery but occurs most often in kidney or neck arteries. It affects close to 4 percent of Americans.

Vascular Disease Understanding Vascular Disease. The vascular system is a network of blood vessels including arteries, veins, and capillaries. Arteries carry oxygen and nutrients to the body; veins return blood from the tissues to the heart. Vascular disease refers to changes that can occur in blood vessels affecting the normal flow of blood.

- Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD; Peripheral Artery Disease [PAD]). Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a problem with poor blood flow. It affects blood vessels outside of the heart and brain and gets worse over time. Parts of the body, like the brain, heart, arms, or legs, may not get enough blood.The legs and feet are most commonly affected.VD is often found in people with problems with the arteries that supply blood to the heart (coronary artery disease). That is because atherosclerosis, which causes coronary artery disease, affects arteries throughout the body. Atherosclerosis is the buildup of plaque on the walls of the arteries.

- Peripheral arterial disease (PAD, also called peripheral artery disease) is a common disorder of the circulatory system. With PAD, narrowed arteries diminish blood flow to your limbs. When your limbs, usually your legs, aren’t getting enough blood then you will start to experience the symptoms of PAD, like leg pain.

Aortoiliac Occlusive Disease BY DR. RAGHUVEER VALLABHANENI. Aortoiliac occlusive disease is the blockage of the aorta, the main blood vessel in your body, or the iliac arteries. The iliac arteries are the branches that your aorta divides into around the level of the belly button to provide blood to your legs and the organs in your pelvis.

Peripheral Arterial Disease  (PAD) A is the correct answer. Peripheral artery disease (or P.A.D.) is a condition in which the arteries that carry blood from the heart to the head, organs, and limbs become clogged with a substance called plaque. Plaque is made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, fibrous tissue, and other substances in the blood.

Occlusive Peripheral Arterial Disease Obstructive peripheral arterial disease most commonly develops in the arteries of the legs, including the two branches of the aorta (iliac arteries), main arteries of the thighs (femoral arteries), of the knees (popliteal arteries), and of the calves (tibial and peroneal arteries).

What is the Difference Between Venous Disease and Peripheral Artery Disease? Conditions and Causes. Peripheral arterial disease, or PAD, is a condition where the muscles of the legs suffer from a restricted blood supply[1]. PAD is caused by plaque; fatty materials and cholesterol that build up inside the arteries.

Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) Narrowing of the arteries in the legs can cause peripheral arterial disease or PAD. Peripheral arterial disease occurs when plaque (fat, cholesterol and other substances in the blood) builds up in the arteries that carry oxygen-rich blood to your legs, arms and pelvis.eripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a very common condition that affects between 12 to 20 percent of Americans over age 65. PAD occurs most often in the arteries of the legs but can also affect the arteries that carry blood to the brain, the arms, the kidneys and other vital organs.

Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) Peripheral artery disease (P.A.D.) is diagnosed based on your medical and family histories, a physical exam, and test results. P.A.D. often is diagnosed after symptoms are reported. A correct diagnosis is important because people who have P.A.D. are at higher risk for coronary heart disease (CHD), heart attack, stroke, and transient ischemic attack (mini-stroke).

arterial occlusive disease MEDICAL: Peripheral Vascular Disorders with Major CC. Arterial occlusive disease, and in particular peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD), is characterized by reduced blood flow through the major blood vessels of the body because of an obstruction or narrowing of the lumen of the aorta and its major branches.ther Drugs: Intermittent claudication caused by chronic arterial occlusive disease may be treated with pentoxifylline (Trental), which can improve blood flow through the capillaries by increasing red blood cell flexibility.

Ashd (atherosclerotic heart disease) Overview Ashd (atherosclerotic heart disease) Overview. Another name for Ashd (atherosclerotic heart disease) is Coronary Artery Disease. What is coronary artery disease? A person with coronary artery disease has narrowing of the arteries that supply blood and oxygen to the heart. Coronary artery disease is caused by atherosclerosis, which is also called hardening of the arteries. As the narrowing worsens, the arteries become unable to supply enough oxygen to meet demand.
