The pathology of hibernating myocardium

Nuclear Medicine Communications
G J Berry, M Masek

Abstract

Myocardial hibernation represents a protective mechanism of muscle preservation in the setting of atherosclerotic coronary artery disease. Long-standing myocardial hypoperfusion leads to diminished myocardial contractility that reverses with improved blood flow after revascularization. The morphologic changes in both animal models and humans are described.
