D000787	Angina Pectoris	The symptom of paroxysmal pain consequent to MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA usually of distinctive character, location and radiation. It is thought to be provoked by a transient stressful situation during which the oxygen requirements of the MYOCARDIUM exceed that supplied by the CORONARY CIRCULATION.

D000789	Angina, Unstable	Precordial pain at rest, which may precede a MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION.

D001161	Arteriosclerosis	Thickening and loss of elasticity of the walls of ARTERIES of all sizes. There are many forms classified by the types of lesions and arteries involved, such as ATHEROSCLEROSIS with fatty lesions in the ARTERIAL INTIMA of medium and large muscular arteries.	Arterioscleroses
D015906	Angioplasty, Balloon, Coronary	Dilation of an occluded coronary artery (or arteries) by means of a balloon catheter to restore myocardial blood supply.
