title: [Myocardial protection: a look to the future].
abstract: Three main types of damage induced by ischemia and reperfusion have been identified: lethal reperfusion injury, microvascular and macrovascular reperfusion injury, and myocardial stunning. Pathophysiological and therapeutic aspects of these ischemia/reperfusion sequelae are reviewed and discussed on the light of recent experimental and clinical results.
