Autopsy findings related to coronary artery pathology, with particular emphasis on identifying the presence of occlusion by plaques or thrombus and evaluating the degree of coronary artery stenosis is of interest. Hence, out of 110 cases 17 hearts with ischemic changes including 15 males and 2 females were analysed. Location of infarct in LV after staining was in anterior wall of LV, septal wall of LV, papillary muscle of LV and lateral wall was seen in 8, 4, 5 and 2 subjects respectively. There is a significant association between coronary artery stenosis, myocardial ischemia and advancing age, more in males.
