Three cases of sudden cardiac death (SCD) of young military men were analyzed. Clinicomorphological features and factors associated with SCD in military men were studied. The study found that SCD had occurred under the conditions of psychoemotional stress, where markers of the stress-related lesion of organs and systems responsible for adaptation were present. The last to appear were signs of myocardiodystrophy, myocardial hypertrophy, and microfocal cardiosclerosis, as well as functional cardiovascular system disorder in the form of pathological orthostatic reaction. Sudden death was also associated with anomalous coronary arterial development and smoking.
