Abstract

Background: Arterial dead zone (ADZ) is a serious medical problem. It has been argued that violations in the work of the heart cause various pathological processes that lead to the development of a dead zone.

In accordance with the new mechanism of DZ development, the main cause of DZ formation is changes in the arterial wall, which lead to disruption of its contractile function. It is the formation of DZ in large and medium-sized arteries that causes the development of severe pathological changes leading to the development of such diseases as myocardial infarction, stroke, and aneurysm.
