| Abstract: | To elucidate accumulation of minerals in human iliac arteries with aging, the content of minerals was analyzed by inductively
coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. Bilateral common, internal, and external iliac arteries of 16 men and 8 women,
ranging ages from 65 to 93 yr, were examined. It was found that an extremely high accumulation of calcium and phosphorus occurred
in the common iliac artery at old age, being higher than that of the internal and external iliac arteries. It should be noted
that the accumulation of calcium and phosphorus is the highest in the common iliac artery among the human arteries examined
to date.
Regarding sexual differences, the content of calcium and phosphorus in the common and internal iliac arteries was higher in
women than in men, whereas their content in the external iliac artery was lower in women than in men. |
