SUMMARY: Myocardial bridges are inborn anomalies frequently found in authopsies. Although tipically clinically silent, they are occasionally associated with severe clinical manifestations, e.g. myocardial ischemia or even sudden death. The pathophysiology and risk factors for these manifestations have no...

Microscopic analysis of the myocardial bridges and their relationship with atheromatous plaque

Int. j. morphol; 39 (1), 2021
