Abstract
No correlation was found between CM and contraction band necrosis, gender, age, heart weight, myocardial fibrosis, coronary artery stenosis, clinical data. Colliquative myocytolysis is a specific histological marker of congestive heart failure, without relation to coronary blood flow, heart weight and myocardial fibrosis. Vacuolization of myocardial cells may be due to other causes (e.g., storage disease, etc.) or may be an artifact. There is no support for the belief that coronary ischemia or myocardial hypoxia is its causes.
