"collateral development" is a correct and usable phrase in written English.
It is often used to refer to the development of other associated projects or ideas as a result of the main task or work. For example, "The completion of this project led to the collateral development of new systems and processes."
Introduction: Repetitive, brief coronary artery occlusions produce collateral development in experimental animals.
Although multiple factors are thought to play a role in collateral development, the contribution of genetic factors is largely unknown.
Hepatic venous flow can compensate in patients with pre-existing intrahepatic venous anastomoses, intrahepatic collateral development, or reversal of portal flow after hepatic vein ligation [11].
In the patient in this case report, reconstruction of the hepatic veins was not required because hepatic venous flow was compensated by intrahepatic venous collateral development [11].
Three-dimensional CT (3D-CT) clearly showed the disruption of the splenic vein at the origin of the vascular pedicle and collateral development of the gastric varices.
Discussion: The automated occluder device reliably produces repetitive coronary occlusions and may facilitate further study of coronary collateral development in response to chronic myocardial ischemia.
In the CKD population hypertension and diabetes might negatively influence the coronary collaterals development.
Similar to previous studies, CKD patients with significant coronary artery disease have high percentage of poor coronary collaterals development.
Multivariate analysis showed hypertension (odd ratio (OR) 2.672, p = 0.006), diabetes (OR 1.956, p = 0.039) and diseased vessels numbers (OR 0.402, p < 0.001) were significant predictors of poor coronary collaterals development.
Both processes are essential for the development of subsequent collateral growth [3].
Stimulation of collateral vessel development in the heart by angiogenic growth factor therapy has been tested in animals and humans for almost two decades.
