Contraction band necrosis (CBN), coagulation necrosis (CN) and infarct size, expressed as CBN + CN, were quantitatively analyzed in 15 pig hearts without collateral circulation. The left anterior descending coronary artery was ligated for 60 and 120 minutes and then reperfused for eight hours (group 1 and 2, respectively). Five hearts were not reperfused (group 3). There was no change in hemodynamics with either occlusion or reperfusion. Regional myocardial blood flow, measured by the generated hydrogen gas clearance method, decreased to almost zero after occlusion but recovered during reperfusion. Percent infarct area of the perfused area in group 1, 2 and 3 were 80±9, 96±2% and 95±3%, respectively. The percent area of CBN was 68±11% in group 1, 2±1% in group 2 and 2±2% in group 3. We conclude that in pig hearts without collateral circulation, the transmural infarct, two-thirds of which is occupied by CBN, is evident even in reperfusion following one-hour occlusion. Therefore, in patients with acute myocardial infarction, coronary thrombolysis should be performed within one hour after the onset of the infarction to reduce the infarct size.
