I would emphasize that until now, there has been no clear evidence that reperfusion causes an additional injury to the ischaemic myocardium. Based on the literature data I would fully support the suggestion presented by Bolli that the term 'reperfusion injury' is actually a misnomer and that the appropriate term should be 'ischaemia-reperfusion injury'.
