    Abstract:
    Serum myoglobin radio-immuno-assay was performed in 137 patients with myocardial infarction. Two groups, of 102 and 35 patients respectively, were seen in two different hospitals. Serum myoglobin was increased in 72 patients from the first group, and in 30 patients from the second group. In 10 patients from the first group, during the first 24 hours, the increase in serum myoglobin was isolated, without increase in CPK, LDH or SGOT. In the second group, a high serum myoglobin level with normal CPK was found in five patients. Increased serum myoglobin is not a specific indicator of myocardial infarction.
