THE HEART External configuration : - Pericardium fibrous – parietal pericardium serosous pericardium visceral pericardium Internal configuration : 1. Heart chambers – 2 atria, 2 ventricles 2. Heart valves – 2 atrioventricular (tricuspid and mitral) and 2 semilunar (pulmonary and aortic) 3. Interventricular Septum Characteristics of : Right atrium (all the veins that drain into it – V. Cava superior, inferior, coronary sinus...) The structures we can identify – fossa ovale, pectineal muscles, right atrial auricule, Tebesian valve and Eustachian valve. Left atrium Veins that drain into it – pulmonary veins Right ventricle Left ventricle Atrioventricular valves Structure and morphology, number of cuspids, chordae tendinae, papillary muscles Semilunar valves Structure and morphology Cardiac vascularization : Coronary arteries Right Coronary – Main Branches and Irrigating Territory Left Coronary – Main Branches and Irrigating Territory
