Arteriosclerotic occlusive disease is a common and frequently occurring disease. In 1891, von Mantenfel first discovered that arteriosclerotic occlusion could cause limb necrosis. Since then, with the improvement of detection methods and the development of vascular surgery, there has been a deeper understanding of arteriosclerotic occlusive disease, and better therapeutic effects have been achieved in treatment.
Arteriosclerotic occlusive disease is a degenerative lesion and the basic pathological process of large and medium arteries, mainly characterized by abnormal deposition of cells, fibrous matrix, lipids, and tissue fragments. Complex pathological changes occur during the proliferative process of the arterial intima or middle layer. Among peripheral vascular diseases, the stenosis, occlusive, or aneurysmal lesions of arteries are almost mostly caused by arteriosclerosis. Arteriosclerotic lesions are generally systemic diseases, commonly occurring in some large...
