Pathology of Myocardial Infarction (M.I.).
In summary, the pathology is ischemic necrosis (coagulative necrosis) followed by repair culminating in fibrosis. The gross and microscopic sequence of an infarct is displayed nicely in Robbins (See Table 13-2, page 611).
Infarcts may be confined to the subendocardium or occupy the entire wall (transmural). The site of the infarct usually corresponds to the field of supply of the obstructed coronary artery.
