[A case of sudden death from a muscle bridge spanning the anterior interventricular branch of the left coronary artery].

A sudden death of a 39-year-old man after physical overload is discussed. Morphological investigation revealed myocardial bridge in the left anterior descending artery, transmural postinfarction scar with aneurysm in the anterior apical region of the left ventricle, and acute myocardial inFarction in the same region. It is supposed that recurring myocardial necrosis developed because of systolic compression of the anterior descending artery during physical overload.

[Sudden death in young athletes: Data from postmortem coronarography].

Two cases of sudden death of young athletes are analysed. Postmortal coronary angiography was performed and coronary index was estimated on the angiograms. Coronary index represents a ratio between the mean coronary caliber and myocardial weight thus reflecting myocardial blood supply. A decrease of coronary index in combination with myocardial fibrosis and necrosis was revealed. It is supposed that recurring myocardial necrosis developed because of hypoperfusion of hypertrophic myocardium during physical overstrain.
