In 80 patient with angina pectoris marked extravascular, vascular and intravascular microcirculatory lesions have been found through conjunctival biomicroscopy which progressed considerably as chronic coronary insufficiency developed. Disorders in the system of microcirculation in patients with angina pectoris are intimately linked with the decrease of tolerance to physical strain, increase of cholesterol and triglyceride level and the coagulating potential of the blood. In angina pectoris patients who during the anginal attack, caused by physical strain, show no "ischaemic" shift of the S-T segment on the ECG, extra- and intravascular microcirculatory disorders play a relatively greater role in the pathogenesis of the disease than in patients with typical changes on ECG.
