title: [The role of a spasm of the coronary arteries in the pathogenesis of acute myocardial infarct and in the development of sudden coronary death].
abstract: Based on the clinical experience and clinicoanatomic correlations, the authors suggest the role of hemorrhage and rupture of atherosclerotic patches in the pathogenesis of sudden coronary death. Proceeding from long-term follow-up studies of patients suffering from CHD, the necessity is substantiated of the regular use of beta-adrenoblockers which significantly reduce the rate of sudden death both in the acute and chronic phases of CHD, particularly in patients with a history of myocardial infarction. Taking into consideration the multifactorial nature of the pathogenesis of acute occlusion of coronary arteries, it is suggested that in addition to the preventive administration of beta-adrenoblockers, thrombolytic agents in combination with antiaggregation remedies and calcium antagonists should be prescribed, especially in cases of arterial pressure rises.
