Introduction The presence of non-coronary atherosclerosis (NCA) in patients with coronary artery disease is associated with a poor prognosis. We have studied whether NCA is also a predictor of poorer outcomes in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is an ultra-rare genetic premature aging disease that is historically fatal in teenage years, secondary to severe accelerated atherosclerosis. With this longer lifespan, calcific aortic stenosis (AS) was identified as an emerging critical risk factor for cardiac death in older patients.

Repeat CTA head and neck demonstrated multifocal intracranial atherosclerosis with marked stenosis of the left V4 segment. However, marked stenosis at V2 appeared to be owed to external compression from facet arthrosis rather than atherosclerosis. He also had moderate stenosis of the right V4 segment.
