A brief literature survey is presented in the paper on the incidence, etiology and nature of postinfarction syndrome. Postinfarction syndrome was emphasized to be associated with the processes of autoallergization of organism to the products of cardiac muscle necrosis. A postinfarction syndrome is described that developed in a 32-year patient with extensive anterior transmural infarction--high temperature on the third day, continuous pain behind the sternum, pericardial friction, rash on both hands, accompanied by paresis of left n. recurrens. After the corticosteroids treatment, the symptoma abated within several days and recovery of the voice was possible after the fifteenth day.

A glycogen storage disease affecting primarily the skeletal muscle and, to a lesser degree, the cardiac muscle, spinal cord, and brain was diagnosed in a 10-year-old neutered Abyssinian cat with a 4-year history of paresis progressing to acute paralysis. Microscopically, these tissues contained inclusions that were pale basophilic in hematoxylin and eosin-stained slides, diastase resistant, periodic acid-Schiff positive, and blue-to-almost black with iodine stain. By transmission electron microscopy, the inclusions consisted of cytosolic, usually sharply demarcated, nonmembrane-bound deposits of finely granular and filamentous material. On the basis of the structural and histochemical staining characteristics, the inclusions were believed to be aggregates of abnormally stored, unbranched glycogen. A defect in glucose metabolism is suspected to be the underlying pathologic process, but an exact cause remains elusive.
