ULTRASTRUCTURAL OBSERVATIONS ON RIGHT ATRIAL CARDIAC MUSCLE CELLS OF PATIENTS WITH CONGENITAL HEART DISEASE / 重庆医科大学学报

ABSTRACT

20m, hypertrophy of nuclei, dilatation of T tubules, mutiple intercalated discs and increase of mitochondria and myofibrils. But the atrial cardiac muscle cells with degeneration showed myofibrillar lysis, abnormal Z bands, mitochondrial swelling and extramembranous disruption, sarcoplasmic reticulum proliferation and dilatation,myelin figures formation and interstitial fibrosis These results suggested that the degree of hypertropy and degeneration of atrial cardiac muscle cells was related to the types, injuried size of congenital heart disease and the age, cardiac functional state of patients
