: The postmortem diagnostics of acute forms of coronary heart disease showed that third-degree cardiomyocytic damages, primary lumpish destruction, and intracellular myocytolysis are attended by elevated cardiac troponin I levels in pericardial fluid and by enhanced activity aspartate aminotransferase and lactate dehydrogenase.
