    Atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis are similar conditions that involve hardening of the arteries over time. Both result in thickened artery walls and decreased elasticity, leading to reduced blood flow. However, atherosclerosis specifically involves a buildup of fatty plaques in the arteries, whereas arteriosclerosis is a broader term that can result from various causes like fibrosis or calcium deposits. A patient with atherosclerosis will have arteriosclerosis, but someone with arteriosclerosis may not necessarily have atherosclerosis.
