Larger infarct size but equal protection by ischemic conditioning in septum and anterior free wall of pigs with LAD occlusion

Abstract The ischemic area at risk (AAR) is one major determinant of infarct size (IS). In patients, the largest AAR is seen with a proximal occlusion of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery, which serves parts of the septum and of the anterior free wall. It is not clear, whether regio...
