Abstract

The number of articles regarding microcirculation dysfunction in the literature increases. One should bear them in
mind especially in case of patients, who declare typical angina, and in whom during coronary angiography we do
not reveal significant lesions in coronary arteries. Arterial hypertension is one of diseases, which may contribute to
microcirculation dysfunction and vessels remodeling. In this short review, we discuss possible mechanism of abovementioned
disturbances.
