Early and late changes in regional myocardial blood flow distribution within the left circumflex coronary arterial bed after occlusion and after occlusion and reperfusion were compared with the extent of myocardial tissue necrosis. Radiolabeled microspheres, 15 micrometer, were used to study regional myocardial blood flow in conscious dogs at 5 minutes, 2 and 6 hours and 1 month after coronary occlusion. Blood flow was measured in conscious dogs whose hearts were reperfused for 72 hours after 2,6 and 24 hours of occlusion. Blood flow was measured in four distinct transmural myocardial zones delineated by dye injections and gross infarct features of the occluded left circumflex coronary bed. After occlusion, myocardial flow was redistributed from deep layers to outer layers, and within 6 hours after occlusion collateral flow was increased to the outer zones in excess of redistributed flow. After reperfusion, blood flow greately increased to regions containing predominantly normal tissue, and flow was redistributed away from the necrotic zones. The indigenous collateral circulation was a major determinant of infarct size in the occluded and reperfused myocardium. The concept of a migrating and narrowing marginal zone is discussed.
