To assess atherosclerosis related death in population- An autopsy study

Background: Coronary artery atherosclerosis is the main cause of sudden death in India and other countries. The present study was conducted to assess atherosclerosis related death in population. Materials & Methods: The present study was conducted on 56 cases of atherosclerosis related deaths of both genders. The time of onset of illness, survival time, and any past history of smoking, hypertension or diabetes was recorded. The routine autopsy technique (Virchow’s1) was used for post mortem examination. Results: Out of 56 patients, males were 32 and females were 24. Maximum cases were of RCA (14) seen in maximally with grade 1 in 7 cases followed by LM (20) with grade 1 in 11, LAD (18) with grade 1 in 12 and LC (6) with grade 2 (3). The difference was significant (P< 0.05). The risk factors was hypertension in 34, diabetes in 14, smoking in 20 and tobacco use in 18 cases. The difference was significant (P< 0.05). Conclusion: Authors found that most common cause of death due to atherosclerosis was involvement of left main trunk and hypertension was risk factor.
