Myocardial infarction is an acute circulatory disorder in the heart muscle that can lead to heart failure and even death. Heart attacks can occur for a variety of reasons, but they are most often associated with atherosclerosis, a disease in which the arteries become narrowed due to the buildup of cholesterol and other substances.
Myocardial infarction is divided into several types: large-focal, small-focal and subendocardial infarction - they all have their own characteristics and require different approaches to treatment. But the most formidable and dangerous is IMI - an infarction between the inner and outer shell of the myocardium - an infarction of the intramural part of the myocardium, which is only 2-5% of the total number of MIs, but plays an important role in the morphological knowledge of disorders of the myocardial blood supply. An attempt to classify these lesions as a variant of coronary artery disease (IMI, IMT, ICMP, PMI) does not justify itself, since there is a discrepancy in a number of key terms of terminology. While other intramyocardial forms of circulatory disorders are not a pathology, the intramural form is accompanied by pronounced signs of IHD. Among all diffuse myocardial lesions, the most severe syndrome develops in the area of myocardial ischemia of one or more segments,
