They can be caused by atherosclerosis, thrombosis, aneurysms, and other congenital or acquired factors. Conditions such as ischemic heart disease, strokes, and peripheral arterial diseases are linked to vascular system impairment. Symptoms range from pain and swelling to circulatory disturbances and ischemia. Diagnosis involves various vascular imaging methods, while treatment varies from medication and surgery to lifestyle changes and preventive measures.
