title: [The indices of the mass and lipids of sections of the heart in cadavers in chronic alcoholism, alcoholic cardiomyopathy and ethanol poisoning].
abstract: Alcohol abuse involves heart mass increment at the expense of epicardial fat. Epicardial fat mass and the content of intramuscular lipids are the highest in alcoholic cardiomyopathy. Since epicardial fat mass increase is in direct correlation with the elevation of lipid content in the heart muscle proper, detection of a large mass of epicardial fat at autopsy permits a conclusion on myocardial obesity.
