In coronary thrombosis, which tissue experiences necrosis?

Myocardial tissues experience necrosis in the case of coronary thrombosis because this condition leads to reduced blood flow to the heart muscle. When a thrombus (clot) forms in the coronary arteries, it obstructs the passage of oxygen-rich blood to the myocardial tissues. The heart muscle is highly dependent on a continuous supply of oxygen and nutrients, which are delivered via the coronary arteries. Without adequate blood flow, the affected myocardial tissue begins to suffer from a lack of oxygen, leading to cell death and, consequently, necrosis. This process is often associated with conditions such as a heart attack or myocardial infarction, where the damage to the heart muscle can be significant and affect overall cardiac function.

In contrast, skin, nerve, and adipose tissues are not directly impacted by coronary thrombosis in the same manner, as they receive blood supply through different vascular systems and are not reliant on the coronary arteries to maintain their viability.
