PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -One example in which coagulative necrosis occurs is a heart attack (myocardial infarction). During a heart attack, one or more coronary arteries that carry blood to your heart become blocked. Without blood flow, heart muscle cells die and the heart may stop pumping.

Detailed explanation-2: -Myocardial infarction (MI) is necrosis and death of heart muscle secondary to ischemia and acute coronary artery thrombosis. Thrombal occlusion of epicardial coronary arteries leads to cell death of the underlying subendocardium.

Detailed explanation-3: -Three types of myocardial necrosis have been experimentally documented to be the result of cigarette smoking action: coagulation necrosis, colliquative myocytolysis and coagulative myocytolysis.
