Coronary Arterial Elastic Fibres A Histological Study in Mammals

Dr. Keshaw Kumar

Abstract :

 For comparison of the density of elastic fies in coronary arterial wall of mammals tissue of their circumflex and interventricular anches from the adult hearts of human, buffalo, pig, goat dog and rabbit was obtained at constant levels to be preserved in 10% formalin. After processing paraffin sections of 10 micron thickness were stained with orcein and counter stained with haematoxylin and eosin. Circumflex as well as interventricular arteries in all the mammals showed + density of elastic fies in tunica intima. There was ++ density of elastic fies in tunica media of interventricular arteries and tunica adventitia of circumflex arteries while +++ density of elastic fies in tunica media of circumflex arteries and in tunica adventitia of interventricular arteries was observed in all the mammals. It was concluded that distal to commencement of coronary arteries density of elastic fies gradually decreases in tunica media and increases in tunica adventitia.
