[Myocardial infarct with a normal coronary angiogram]. 1976

J Staiger

In this paper evidence is presented that in few patients with clear cut myocardial infarction as judged by physical signs, ECG and laboratory findings, the arteriography and morphology still may indicate healthy, unaffected coronary arteris. In those cases first of all the differential diagnosis has to include a silent myocarditis by whatever origin. This assumption may also be correct, if there are no or only few signs for this disease. Extensive diagnostic precedures should be performed under those circumstances.

D009203	Myocardial Infarction	NECROSIS of the MYOCARDIUM caused by an obstruction of the blood supply to the heart (CORONARY CIRCULATION).

D006322	Heart Aneurysm	A localized bulging or dilatation in the muscle wall of a heart (MYOCARDIUM), usually in the LEFT VENTRICLE. Blood-filled aneurysms are dangerous because they may burst. Fibrous aneurysms interfere with the heart function through the loss of contractility. True aneurysm is bound by the vessel wall or cardiac wall. False aneurysms are HEMATOMA caused by myocardial rupture.	Cardiac Aneurysm,Aneurysm, Cardiac,Aneurysm, Heart,Aneurysms, Cardiac,Aneurysms, Heart,Cardiac Aneurysms,Heart Aneurysms

D000787	Angina Pectoris	The symptom of paroxysmal pain consequent to MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA usually of distinctive character, location and radiation.
