title: [Quantitative morphology of the intramural coronary arteries of the trabecula septomarginalis of pigmy goats and swine].
abstract: There are musculo-elastic intimal thickenings in the intramural coronary arteries of the Trabecula septomarginalis, which results in a stenosing grade of 69% in average in 6 month old pigs, of 43% in 1-6 months old pygmy goats and of 35% in average in 4-7 years old pygmy goats. The degree of intimal thickenings is related to the arterial diameter (r = -0.60); the strongest of which are found in small vessels of 100-200 microns. With increasing arterial diameter during ageing the stenoses decrease. The role of the intramural coronaries of the Trabecula septomarginalis is discussed.
