ARTERIA CORONARIA Meaning and Definition

1. Arteria coronaria refers to the coronary arteries, which are a network of blood vessels that supply the heart muscle with oxygen-rich blood. The term "arteria coronaria" is derived from its Latin roots, where "arteria" means artery and "coronaria" means pertaining to or encircling the heart.

   The arteria coronaria consists of two main branches: the left and right coronary arteries. The left coronary artery divides into two major branches known as the left anterior descending artery (LAD) and the left circumflex artery (LCX). The right coronary artery (RCA) runs along the right side of the heart. These arteries are responsible for delivering oxygenated blood to the myocardium, the muscular tissue of the heart.

   The arteria coronaria plays a vital role in maintaining the overall function and health of the heart. Any blockages or narrowings in these arteries can lead to a condition called coronary artery disease (CAD), which can result in reduced blood flow to the heart muscle and potentially lead to a heart attack.

   Medical professionals often assess the patency and functionality of the arteria coronaria through various diagnostic procedures such as coronary angiography. Additionally, treatments for coronary artery disease may include medications, lifestyle modifications, or surgical interventions, such as coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI).

2. (1) One of two arteries (dextra and sinistra) supplying the walls of the heart; they arise from the sinuses of Vaisalva; (2) a. gastrica sinistra; (3) a. labialis superior.

Etymology of ARTERIA CORONARIA

The word "arteria coronaria" is derived from Latin.

The term "arteria" in Latin means "artery", which refers to the blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to other parts of the body. The word "coronaria" is the feminine form of the Latin adjective "coronarius", which means "pertaining to a crown".

The term "coronaria" was used because the coronary arteries branch out and encircle the heart like a crown, supplying it with oxygenated blood. Hence, "Arteria Coronaria" refers to the coronary artery, a major blood vessel that supplies the heart muscle with oxygen and nutrients.
