what are fatty streaks? where do they occur? in what population?
lesions which begin in children in all populations and show collections of foamy lipid-laden macrophages and smooth muscle cells just beneath the intimal surface of the arteries.
what is a fibrous cap? in what stage of athersclerosis does it occur? is it reversible?
2nd phase: is specific lesion that occurs later as the fibrolipid plaque, and at this point intimal changes are not reversible. In general the intimal surface shows a layer of fibrosis - “fibrous cap” which encloses a zone of fatty, necrotic, and partly calcified debris full of elongated smooth muscle cells, fibroblasts and macrophages
