Myocardial Infarction

This specimen represents a

posterior MI.

The way to identify LV and RV is

as follows:

LV: Same size as septum.

RV: usually within the range of
0.5 cm.

The way to identify the ant/post

side:

On Ant side, there are the

columns of origin of papillary
muscle. They attach on the Post
