[Coronary atherosclerosis, coronary thrombosis and myocardial infarction in autopsy cases. 8th communication: Relationship of coronary atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction (author's transl)]. 1978

W Böttger, and H Güthert, and F Vollmar

The autopsy reports of the Pathological Institute Erfurt of the period from 1.1.1951 until 31.12.1969 were scored for cases of coronary atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction and analysed concerning frequency and distribution of age and sex, resp. In 89.05 per cent (2131 cases) of all myocardial infarctions a coronary sclerosis was present. Males suffered significantly more frequent from these forms of ischaemic heart disease. During the period of nineteen years a significant increase of the coronary atherosclerosis in combination with a myocardial infarction was observed. This is due to the more frequent occurrence of severe forms. The increase of the frequency of the myocardial infarctions and of the weak and moderately coronary sclerosis particularly concerns the younger age groups. Callous infarcts were more frequent than fresh and relapsing ones.
