LESLIE ASUNCION-VIADO| 12/14/20 NOTE: The left ventricle is significantly thicker than the right ventricle. It contains 2 papillary muscles whose chordae tendineae attach to the cusps of the mitral (left atrioventricular, or bicuspid) valve. The mitral valve looks like a bishop’s miter. Heart sounds (lub-dub) occur from the closing of the valves. The 1st heart sound results from the closing of the mitral and tricuspid valves, whereas the 2nd heart sound results from the closing of the aortic and pulmonic valves. Figure II.E Tricuspid Valve from the Right atrium The atrium has been opened by incising the anterior wall (2) and turning the flap outwards so that the atrial surface of the atrioventricular orifice is seen, guarded by the three cusps of the tricuspid valve – anterior (1), posterior (7) and septal (8).

The cusps of the pulmonary valve (7, 2 and 13) are seen at the top of the infundibulum of the right ventricle (5), and the aortic valve cusps (12, 9 and 6) have been dissected out from the beginning of the ascending aorta. III. BLOOD VESSELS OF CORONARY CIRCULATION A. Right coronary artery → Inferior surface of the heart → Crux → Posterior interventricular artery → Right marginal branch on the inferior margin of the heart 2/3 of cases - Right dominance B. Left coronary artery - located between the pulmonary trunk and the auricle of the left atrium; it immediately divides into an anterior interventricular branch and a circumflex Figure III.B Cast of the heart and great vessels. From circumflex, it will continue to anastomose near the crux of the heart with the termination of the right coronary artery The base of the heart is its posterior surface, formed largely by C. Diagonal branch of the anterior interventricular branch - supplies the left atrium (7). Note that the base is not the part of the heart the left ventricle which joins the superior vena cava, aorta and pulmonary trunk; this part has no special name. The very small oblique vein of the left atrium (12) marks the point where the great cardiac vein (5) becomes the coronary sinus (4), but the junction is unusually far to the right so that the posterior vein of the left ventricle (14) joins the great cardiac vein (5) instead of the coronary sinus itself. The coronary sinus (4), which receives most of the venous blood from the heart, lies in the posterior part of the atrioventricular groove between the left atrium and left ventricle and opens into the right atrium. The coronary sinus normally receives as tributaries the great cardiac vein (5), middle cardiac vein (11), and the small cardiac vein, the posterior vein of the left ventricle (14) and the oblique vein of the left atrium (12).
