title: Lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes in myocardial disease.
abstract: Serum lactate dehydrogenase (LD) is elevated in various myocardial diseases. A certain pattern of LD isoenzyme elevation occurs in myocardial disease. Since LD is an ubiquitous enzyme, it is not surprising that serum LD is increased in a wide variety of other diseases, which are analyzed in this article.
