To define whether recanalization after occlusion can reduce the myocardial infarct size, we compared the infarct size in 25 pig hearts without collateral circulation, 35 dog hearts with collateral circulation and 11 human autopsied hearts with coronary thrombolysis at 2 to 6 hours after the onset of acute myocardial infarction. The data showed that % infarct size in the risk area increased according to the duration of occlusion. In the pig, % infarct size was 80±9% in the recanalization after 1 hour occlusion and 96±2% in the recanalization and the permanent occlusion group (95±3%). In the dog, % infarct size was 35±31% in the recanalization after 4 hour occlusion and 59±27% in the permanent occlusion group. In human autopsied hearts, the infarct size was was the same between the recanalization group (82±6%) and the permanent occlusion group (80±11%). The % infarct size in the recanalization groups was less than or the same as that in the hearts with permanent occlusion in dog, pig and human. Thus, it is concluded that, to reduce conclusively the infarct size, recanalization should be done within 1 hour after the occlusion in the hearts without collateral circulation and within 4 hours in the hearts with collateral circulation. So called reperfusion injury which means the greater expansion of the % infarct size than that in the permanent occlusion is not present.
