ARTERIES
The arteries carry oxygen rich blood and nutrients away from your heart, to your body’s tissues.
ARTERIAL DISORDERS
It is a common circulatory problem in which narrowed arteries reduce the blood flow to your arms and legs.
OVERVIEW OF ARTERIAL PROBLEMS THAT CAN OCCUR
Hypertensive ulcers
Chronic changes which can result in ulcers of the limb because of less blood supply.
Hypertension may mean that it is associated with arteriosclerosis and insufficient blood supply can give rise to new ulcers. Management of these ulcers are equally important.
Aneurysms
Aneurysms of the arteries in which the aneurysm is taken off and then a venous graft or prosthesis is put in between to reconstruct the vessel.
Arteriovenous malformations
Arteriovenous malformations is a big segment in which the arteries and the veins have multiple channels and multiple communications intermittently, so it forms like a tumour, behaves like a tumour and keeps on increasing.
