Intramural coronary arteriosclerosis of normal and dwarfed swine.
Dwarfing of swine maintained in large groups with relatively little space per animal may be attributed to psychosocial factors. Intramural coronary arteriosclerosis developed at approximately the same rate in dwarfed and normally developing animals. Lesions in arteries of the left posterior papillary muscle were more advanced than in the left anterior papillary muscle of the same animal, irrespective of its growth rate, and often were more advanced than in swine twice as old.
