Myocardial Infarction, Old (Microscopic) |
|
|
| Microscopic image of myocardium from an old
infarction. There are artifacts from debris out of the plane of focus (black circles). Notice
there are many normal cardiomycytes, just one shown (yellow arrow). There are patches of fibrosis
(large blue arrows) in close proximity to normal cardiomyocytes. There are some patent vessels even
in the area of fibrosis (small red arrows). |
