[Acute myocardial infarct in a patient with multiple sclerosis]. 1976

S Markovski, and M Tsekov

The authors discuss the progress of acute myocardial infarction in a male subject, aged 39 suffering multiple sclerosis for 11 years. The progress of the infarction is severe but with a favourable outcome. It comes to confirm the literature survey of the existence of a correlation between the neurologic disturbance with the accompanying disturbances in lipid, protein and carbohydrate metabolism, increased blood coagulation ability and the ischemic heart disease. The incidence (10%) of multiple sclerosis among the neurologic diseases of organic nature and the affect of people in their most productive age (20-40) and the mutual relationship with the ischemic heart disease brings for the necessity of a early detection and treatment of the present coronary insufficiency, parallelly with the basic disease, in order to improve the prognosis of those patients.

D009103 Multiple Sclerosis An autoimmune disorder mainly affecting young adults and characterized by destruction of myelin in the central nervous system. Pathologic findings include multiple sharply demarcated areas of demyelination throughout the white matter of the central nervous system. Clinical manifestations include visual loss, extra-ocular movement disorders, paresthesias, loss of sensation, weakness, dysarthria, spasticity, ataxia, and bladder dysfunction. The usual pattern is one of recurrent attacks followed by partial recovery (see MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, RELAPSING-REMITTING), but acute fulminating and chronic progressive forms (see MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, CHRONIC PROGRESSIVE) also occur.
