Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality all over the world. Multifocal atherosclerosis refers to an atherosclerotic lesion of two or more vascular beds. This concept was introduced into medical practice due to the systemic character of atherosclerosis in such patients prone to disease progression and worsening prognosis. This paper analyses the original studies on the topic. The revealed high incidence of multifocal atherosclerosis determines the medical and social significance of this problem. Low adherence of patients with multifocal atherosclerosis to treatment significantly neutralizes the effect of ongoing preventive and therapeutic measures.
