A stenosis is an abnormal narrowing in a blood vessel or tubular organ.
There are many types of stenosis depending on the structure affected
Vascular stenotic lesions include:
Peripheral artery stenosis Angina (coronary artery stenosis) Carotid artery stenosis Renal artery stenosis
Stenosis in heart valves are:
Pulmonary valve stenosis Mitral valve stenosis Tricuspid valve stenosis Aortic valve stenosis
Stenosis of other bodily structures/organs include:
Pyloric stenosis Lumbar, cervical or thoracic spinal stenosis Tracheal stenosis Atherosclerosis
Causes:
atherosclerosis infection Diabetes inflammation neoplasm smoking
Diagnosis:
Stenosis of the vascular type are often associated with unusual blood sounds resulting from turbulent flow over the narrowed blood vessel. This sound can be made audible by a stethoscope, but diagnosis is confirmed with some form of medical imaging.
