ABSTRACT
In an autopsied female primary polycythemia was definitely diagnosed only after histological examination. A classical form of Vaquez-Osler disease was characterized by pronounced normo-, granulo- and megakaryocyte hyperplasia of the bone marrow, spleen and liver myelosis with an admixture of atypical megakaryocytes and splenomegaly. There was a complication in the form of two coronary arteries thrombosis. Lethal outcome resulted from myocardial infarction.

Proceeding from clinicomorphological correlations in 63 patients with combined right and left ventricular myocardial infarction and in 92 patients with isolated left ventricular myocardial infarction some features of heart coronary pathology that contributed to the formation of a process of different site in the right and left ventricles were revealed. A hypothesis of variants of the pathogenesis of myocardial infarction of the anterior and posterior free walls of the right ventricle was discussed.
