Abstract：
:Minoxidil, a vasodilating antihypertensive drug, was given orally at 10 mg/kg daily for 2 days to twelve 25- to 35-kg miniature pigs. Twelve control pigs were also studied. Minoxidil-treated pigs had tachycardia and hypotension and were killed 24 hr after the second dose. Gross examination showed diffuse hemorrhage in left atrial epicardium in all pigs, and also in ventricular epicardium (2 of 12 pigs) and endocardium (3 of 12 pigs). Pale areas of necrosis were observed on incision of the left ventricular papillary muscles in 3 pigs. Light and electron microscopic studies showed acute vascular damage with hemorrhage in the left atrial epicardium. Affected arterioles had endothelial cell swelling and transmural and perivascular accumulations of leukocytes, edema fluid, fibrin clumps, and erythrocytes. The swollen endothelial cells had large, irregularly shaped nuclei with abundant euchromatin; mitotic figures were frequent. The cytoplasm contained numerous polysomes and cisterns of rough endoplasmic reticulum. Fibroblasts adjacent to damaged vessels had edematous cytoplasm and increased amounts of rough endoplasmic reticulum. In the affected left ventricular papillary muscles, necrotic myocytes showed contraction bands, mitochondrial matrical densities, lipid accumulation, initial lysis of I bands, and pyknotic nuclei. The lesions were judged to result from two mechanisms: (1) hemorrhagic lesions from drug-induced vascular injury centered on epicardial and subepicardial arterioles and (2) papillary muscle necrosis from ischemic injury from hypoperfusion during minoxidil-induced tachycardia and hypotension.
