Abstract
The multiple ultrastructural alterations of myocardial cells in cardiac diseases seem to be mostly unspecific and only gradually different as has been seen in the electron micrographs before. In this investigation it was our aim to distinguish between different stages of intracellular lesions in connection with the loading of the left ventricle. The analysis was performed morphometrically according to the methods of Weibel [1]. From a pool of 500 myocardial biopsies of different cardiac lesions myocardial material could be selected for morphometric analysis
