At autopsy the lungs were congested and edematous with evidence of lobar pneumonia. The heart weighed 540 grams and showed 75 to 95% atherosclerotic stenosis of all the major coronary arteries. The right and left ventricles were markedly dilated. The ventricular walls were extremely thin with patchy areas of subendocardial fibrosis. The liver weighed 1630 grams and displayed the classic "nutmeg appearance" of chronic passive hepatic congestion on cut surface.
