[The copper content of the myocardium in the acute form of ischemic heart disease].
The authors made an autopsy study of 32 hearts from patients who died of acute myocardial insufficiency, rhythm disorders and heart ruptures at terms from 1 to 50 days. It was found that the infarction zone (IZ) showed an absolute lower content of copper that the noninfarction zone (NIZ). The relative content of copper in the IZ was lowest in patients who died of acute cardiac insufficiency. These data may be used in evaluation of destruction and healing processes in patients with myocardial infarction.
