Characterization of Spontaneous Vascular Findings in the Papillary Muscles of Beagle Dogs.

Abstract:

:Standard histology trimming practices for toxicity studies in dogs include preparation of a section of the papillary muscle associated with the left ventricular free wall-the anteriolateral or anterior muscle. In contrast, the posteromedial or posterior papillary muscle, associated with the interventricular septum, is not commonly evaluated. In humans, the posterior papillary muscle is more often affected in ischemic myocardial disease, in large part due to the absence of collateral circulation, in contrast to the anterior muscle. Due to the differential vascular supply to the papillary muscles, we sought to determine whether there is a higher incidence of spontaneous coronary vascular changes in the posterior papillary muscle versus the anterior muscle in dogs. The hearts of 30 vehicle-treated or untreated beagle dogs that were euthanized for other purposes were collected and sectioned in a consistent manner to include both papillary muscles for histologic evaluation. The posterior muscle consistently had higher incidences of intramural coronary arteries affected by vascular medial hypertrophy, medial arteriosclerosis, intimal hyperplasia, and/or disruption or loss of the internal elastic lamina. This observation may have significant implications for the evaluation and characterization of spontaneous and xenobiotic-induced cardiovascular lesions in dogs.
