<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Apart from thromboembolism, chronically expanding atherosclerotic lesions can cause complete closure of the lumen. Chronically expanding lesions are often asymptomatic until lumen [[stenosis]] is so severe (usually over 80%) that blood supply to downstream tissue(s) is insufficient, resulting in [[ischemia]]. These complications of advanced atherosclerosis are chronic, slowly progressive, and cumulative. Most commonly, soft plaque suddenly ruptures (see [[vulnerable plaque]]), causing the formation of a thrombus that will rapidly slow or stop blood flow, leading to the death of the tissues fed by the artery in approximately five minutes. This event is called an [[infarction]].</div>FuzzyBot
