| Acute Myocardial Infarct
| Transverse section viewed from above with anterior
surface facing upward. Left ventricle is hypertrophied.
Note the poorly defined areas of tan discoloration in the
anterolateral wall and interventricular septum (3 black
arrows). Note also the circumferential subendocardial
gray change seen best in the trabeculae carnae (2 white
arrows). This is classical subendocardial scarring due to
countless confluent healed microinfarcts occurring with
attacks of angina pectoris.
