Cardiac Muscle


Coronary arteries, note the conus (~45% of hearts)




Normal Heart


coronary atherosclerosis

coronary atherosclerosis

coronary atherosclerosis


coronary atherosclerosis,
recanalization




AMI

remote MI (older)

Remote MI

coagulative necrosis



inflammatory cell infiltration (neutrophils first) 1-2 or 3 days

neutrophil infiltration (1-2 or 3 days)


macrophage infiltration, neovascularization (5-7 days)

replacement of necrotic tissue w/ scar tissue (3-10 days)

Ventricular Free Wall Rupture (hemopericardium, cardiac tamponade)
Complications most at risk during first 4-7 days.


Ventricular Free Wall Rupture

Ventricular Septal Rupture

Papillary Muscle Rupture

Ventricular Aneurysm, Mural Thrombi


Ventricular Aneurysm, Mural Thrombi


aortic atherosclerosis


aortic atherosclerosis


aortic atherosclerosis

abdominal aortic aneurysm
(infrarenal, most common site of aneurysm)

Aortic dissection,
type A (ascending aorta, more severe, req sx), type B (descending, less severe, possibly managed medically)


Aortic dissection,
most common site of intimal tear/dissection is the
proximal ascending aorta (poor prognosis, leads to hemopericardium/tamponade)
