Advanced complicated atherosclerosis was produced in the abdominal aorta of swine by a combination of mechanical injury and high-cholesterol, high-fat diet for four months. After removal of the high-cholesterol diet and placing the animal on swine mash for 14 months, there was a significant (P less than .005) decrease in size of lesions with remodeling of the intima toward a smooth surface. Sudanophilia had virtually disappeared and atheromas were almost absent in the regression group, as were thrombosis and hemorrhage in plaques. Cell proliferation, as judged by the number of labeled cells in autoradiography, was less pronounced in this group. There was no decrease in the numbers of segments showing calcification; however, the size of the calcified areas was smaller in the regression group than in the base line. The data suggest that advanced atherosclerosis is susceptible to regression on removal of the atherosclerotic stimulus.
