[Myocardial infarct in rheumatic mitral valve defects].
Analysis of the clinical and autopsy findings has shown that rheumatic heart disease (RHD) in persons who died from myocardial infarction is an extreme rarity (0.8%). It has been discovered that extensive transmural myocardial infarction in RHD only occurs in association with coronary heart disease (CHD) because of coronary atherosclerosis and that it is conditioned by CHD rather than by rheumatic process. For that reason myocardial infarction is characterized by the common clinico-electrocardiographic picture.
