Transmural injury refers to damage that extends through the entire thickness of a tissue, often seen in conditions like myocardial infarction (heart attack) or severe gastrointestinal perforations. This type of injury can disrupt normal function, leading to complications such as impaired organ performance, severe pain, and risk of infection or bleeding. In the heart, for example, transmural injury can result in significant loss of heart muscle function, potentially leading to heart failure or death if not promptly treated. Overall, transmural injuries are serious and require immediate medical intervention.
