MD ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR OF ANATOMY & EMBRYOLOGY HEAD OF ANATOMY-HISTOLOGY DEPARTMENT 3/18/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 1 Learning Objectives Knowledge & understanding By the end of this lecture the student should be able to: Outline the surface marking of the borders of the heart Outline the surface marking of cardiac valves &their auscultatory areas. Clinical points 3/18/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 2 Surface marking of the borders of the heart The upper border is marked by a straight line joining the points (A)& (B) Point (A) at the lower border of the left 2nd costal cartilage about 1.3 cm from the sternal margin. Point (B) at the upper border of the right 3rd costal cartilage 1.3 cm from the sternal margin. The lower border is marked by a straight line joining:(C)& (D) Point (C) at the lower border of the right 6th costal cartilage 2 cm from the sternal margin. Point (D) at the apex of the heart in the left 5th intercostal space 9 cm from the midsternal line. Dr.ABDELHAMID Surface marking of the borders of the heart The right border is marked by a line joining: (B)& (C) slightly convex to the right, The maximum convexity is about 3.8 cm from the median plane in the fourth space. The left border is marked by a line joining: (A)& (D) fairly convex to the left. Atrioventricular groove is marked by a line drawn from the sternal end of left 3rd costal cartilage to the sternal end of right 6th costal cartilage. Note: The area of the chest wall overlying the heart is called the precordium.

The figures have been created to show landmarks on the body's surface that can be used to locate deep structures and to assess function by auscultation and percussion. 3/18/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 9 C l i n i c a l C o rr e l a t e s Marfan syndrome: An autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder that affects microfibrils and elastin in connective tissue throughout the body. Clinical manifestations: 1. Tall stature, spine deformities. 2. Heart valve defects: mitral valve prolapse 3. Aortic dissections, aortic aneurysm 4. Joint hypermobility 5. Eyes (lens subluxation). 3/18/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 10 Case Problem : A 6-year-old boy is brought to the physician by his mother because of a 3- month history of episodic chest pain and shortness of breath on exertion. He is at the 99th percentile for height and 40th percentile for weight. Examination shows a high- arched palate, long and slender upper extremities, and elbows and knees that can be hyperextended. Cardiac examination shows a grade 2/6 late systolic, crescendo murmur with a midsystolic click.

MD ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR OF ANATOMY & EMBRYOLOGY HEAD OF ANATOMY-HISTOLOGY DEPARTMENT 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 1 Learning Objectives Knowledge & understanding By the end of this lecture the student should be able to: Describe the Heart regards: Position Shape, Apex, Base, Surfaces &Borders Supply (arterial,venous&nerve) Clinical points 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 2 Heart (position, axis & apex) Position: The heart lies obliquely in middle mediastinum 1/3 of it lies 1 to the right & 2/3 to the left of the median plane. 3 Its long axis is directed downwards, forwards and to the left. 4 Its apex lies in the left 5th 5 intercostal space 3.5 inches from 3.5 inches median plane 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 3 Heart (Shape, surfaces & borders ) The heart is Cone shaped Base of the heart is directed backwards and to the right. Apex of heart is directed downwards, forwards and to the left. Sternocostal surface is directed anteriorly. Diaphragmatic surface is directed inferiorly 4 borders: right, left, superior & inferior 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ٤ Heart (Base) Base ( posterior ) surface: Formed by the back of both atria, mainly the left atrium. Bounded inferiorly by the coronary sulcus which lodges the coronary sinus. The base lies opposite the bodies of thoracic vertebrae TV to TVIII in supine position and TVI to TIX when standing. The Esophagus lies immediately posterior to the base of heart. 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ٥ Heart (Base) 2 right & 2 left pulmonary veins pierce the base to open into cavity of left atrium Right & left pulmonary arteries run along the upper border of the base 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ٦ Heart (Diaphragmatic surface) Left ventricle forms its left 2/3 Right ventricle forms its right 1/3 Posterior interventricular groove lodges (contains): 1. Posterior interventricular branch of right coronary a. 2. Middle cardiac vein 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ٧ Sterno-costal ( anterior) surface: Divided by coronary sulcus into : a) atrial portion : formed mostly by right atrium as the part formed by left atrium is masked by the pulmonary trunk & ascending aorta except the left auricle appears forward. 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ٨ Sterno-costal ( anterior ) surface b) Ventricular portion: Divided by anterior interventricular sulcus into right 2/3 formed by right ventricle & left 1/3 formed by left ventricle. So the apex of the heart is formed by left ventricle only. 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ٩ Grooves on sternocostal surface 1. Anterior part of coronary sulcus lodges : a) Right coronary artery b) Anterior cardiac veins crossing the sulcus to open directly into Rt. atrium 2. Anterior interventricular sulcus lodges: a) Anterior interventricular a. branch of left coronary b) Great cardiac vein 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ١٠ Identify 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 11 Identify 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ١٢ Arterial Supply of the Heart Heart is supplied by right & left coronary arteries which are branches from the ascending aorta. They are called coronaries as they surround the ventricles as a crown surrounds the head 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ١٣ Right coronary artery Arises from anterior aortic sinus Runs in the coronary sulcus downwards till the inferior border of heart backwards to posterior part of coronary sulcus Ends by anastomosing with the circumflex branch of left coronary 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ١٤ Branches of Right coronary artery 1. Marginal artery runs along the inferior border of heart supplies right ventricle 2. Posterior interventricular artery (PDA) runs in posterior interventricular sulcus supplies both ventricles & posterior 1/3 of interventricular septum 3. Small unnamed brs. to supply walls of pulmonary trunk & ascending aorta & right atrium. 4. Special branches to supply both SA node & AV node. 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ١٥ Left coronary artery Larger in diameter than right coronary Left Coronary Arises from left posterior aortic sinus artery Runs between the root of pulmonary trunk & left auricle to reach the upper end of ant. Circumflex interventricular sulcus where it ends by giving 2 artery brs. Ends by dividing into circumflex artery & Anterior anterior interventricular artery Interventricular Artery(LAD) 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ١٦ Branches of left coronary artery 1. Small brs. to supply the walls of both ascending aorta & pulmonary trunk. 2. Anterior interventricular artery (LAD) to supply anterior wall of both ventricles & anterior 2/3 of interventricular septum. 3. Circumflex arteryruns backwards in posterior part of coronary sulcus to supply posterior wall of both left atrium& left ventricle. 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ١٧ Applied Anatomy Coronary arteries are considered as physiological end arteries, however anatomically coronaries & their branches do anastomose, but the sites of anastomosis can not provide an effective collateral circulation if a large artery is obstructed. Coronary anastomosis is poor in young age but become more relatively efficient as one gets older. 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 18 Applied Anatomy Is sudden coronary occlusion more dangerous if it occurs at young age or in old age & WHY? 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 19 Venous drainage of the heart Most veins of the heart accompany the arteries. Most cardiac veins end in the Coronary Sinus which: is a wide venous channel. lies in the posterior part of the coronary sulcus. ends into the cavity of right atrium. 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID ٢٠ Coronary sinus Receives the following tributaries: 1. Great cardiac v. 2. Middle cardiac v. 3. Small cardiac v. 4. Posterior v. of left ventricle 5. Oblique v. of left atrium 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 21 Veins which do not open into the Coronary sinus Anterior cardiac veins few veins which drain the anterior wall of right ventricle & open directly into the right atrium. Venae cordis minimi minute veins in the muscle layer of each chamber & open directly into the cavity of that chamber. 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 22 Nerve supply of the heart Heart is supplied by autonomic (sympathetic & parasympathetic nerves) through the superficial & deep cardiac plexuses. Superficial cardiac plexus lies below the arch of aorta Deep cardiac plexus lies in front of tracheal bifurcation 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 23 Conclusion: Coronary arteries are considered as functional end arteries, however anatomically coronaries & their branches do anastomose, but the sites of anastomosis can not provide an effective collateral circulation if a large artery is obstructed. Coronary anastomosis is poor in young age but become more relatively efficient as one gets older. 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 24 C l i n i c a l C o rr e l a t e s Coronary artery disease The severity depends on the size and location of the artery involved and whether or not the blockage is complete. Partial blockages may produce pain (angina) during or after exercise. Complete Occlusion of a major coronary artery leads to an inadequate oxygenation of an area of myocardium and cell death (i.e. myocardial infarction). 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 25 C l i n i c a l C o rr e l a t e s If the coronary artery disease is too severe to be treated by coronary angioplasty, surgical coronary artery bypass grafting may be necessary. The Great Saphenous Vein in the lower limb is harvested and used as an autologous graft. The Internal Thoracic or Radial Arteries can also be used for this purpose. 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 26 C l i n i c a l C o rr e l a t e s Clinical terminology for coronary arteries Anterior interventricular artery, is termed the left anterior descending artery (LAD). Posterior interventricular artery, is termed the posterior descending artery (PDA). 2/27/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 27 Case Problem : A 39-year-old woman comes to the physician because of an 8-month history of progressive fatigue, shortness of breath, and palpitations. She has a history of recurrent episodes of joint pain and fever during childhood. She emigrated from India with her parents when she was 10 years old.

Fibrous pericardium is connected to the back of sternum by two sternopericardial ligaments 2. Fibrous pericardium is attached inferiorly to the central tendon of the diaphragm So, the fibrous pericardium helps to keep the heart in position. 3. Fibrous pericardium blends with the adventitia of the big vessels (ascending aorta, pulmonary trunk & SVC) so, helps to keep mouths of these vessels always opened unaffect.ed by the heart or lung movements. 3/20/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 6 Functions of fibrous pericardium 1. Maintains a constant position for the heart. 2. Being non elastic, it prevents over distension of the heart 3. Keeps the mouths of blood vessels opened not affected by cardiac or respiratory movements 3/20/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 7 Attachments of the fibrous pericardium Fibrous pericardium blends with adventitia of big vessels Fibrous pericardium is attached to diaphragm 3/20/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 8 Pericardial Sinuses 14 or 16 Pocket-like recess of the pericardial cavity Transverse sinus = lies anterior to the venous end of the heart (SVC) and upper border of the left atrium and posterior to the arterial end of heart (ascending aorta + pulmonary trunk). Oblique sinus = a blind sac posterior to the left atrium between the openings of pulmonary veins and IVC. 3/20/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 9 Pericardial Sinuses When the pericardium is opened anteriorly during surgery, a finger placed in the transverse sinus separates arteries from veins. A hand placed under the apex of the heart and moved superiorly into the oblique sinus. 3/20/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 10 Functions of the serous pericardium 19:35 Functions of the serous pericardium: 1. Lubrication of the heart, preventing friction during its movements. 2. Prevents adhesions between the heart and the surrounding organs. N.B. the pericardial cavity contains a thin film of serous fluid secreted by the cells of the serous pericardium 3/20/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 11 Blood supply of the pericardium Fibrous pericardium & parietal serous 20:23 23 pericardium are supplied by brs. from: 1.

Prevents adhesions between the heart & the surrounding organs 3/20/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 15 C l i n i c a l C o rr e l a t e s 30:14 Pericardial effusion Normally, only a tiny amount of fluid is present between the visceral and parietal layers of the serous pericardium. In certain situations, this space can be filled with excess fluid (pericardial effusion). Because the fibrous pericardium is a relatively fixed structure that cannot expand easily, a rapid accumulation of excess fluid within the pericardial sac compresses the heart (cardiac tamponade), resulting in biventricular failure. Removing the fluid with a needle inserted into the pericardial sac can relieve the symptoms. 3/20/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 16 C l i n i c a l C o rr e l a t e s Constrictive pericarditis Abnormal thickening of the pericardial sac (constrictive pericarditis) can compress the heart, impairing heart function and resulting in heart failure. The diagnosis is made by inspecting the jugular venous pulse in the neck. In normal individuals, the jugular venous pulse drops on inspiration. In patients with constrictive pericarditis, the reverse happens and this is called Kussmaul's sign. Treatment often involves surgical opening of the pericardial sac. 3/20/2023 Dr.ABDELHAMID 17 Case Problem : A 40-year-old man is brought to the emergency department because of acutely worsening shortness of breath and a 5-day history of stabbing chest pain. The pain worsens when lying down, and he is unable to take a deep breath. For the past 10 days, the patient has had a fever with cough and a runny nose. He appears pale and diaphoretic. His temperature is 38.5°C (101.3°F), pulse is 110/min, and respirations are 30/min. His blood pressure is 110/75 mm Hg during expiration and 90/65 mm Hg during inspiration. The jugular veins are distended and there is 2+ pitting edema below the knees. The lungs are clear to auscultation.

MD ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR OF ANATOMY & EMBRYOLOGY HEAD OF ANATOMY-HISTOLOGY DEPARTMENT Learning Objectives Knowledge & understanding By the end of this lecture the student should be able to: Describe the anatomical details with clinical correlates of the following structures: ❑Thoracic aorta ❑Pulmonary trunk ❑Brachiocephalic veins ❑SVC&IVC 8/25/2024 Dr.ABDELHAMID 2 The ascending aorta ❑The ascending aorta: is contained within the pericardial sac which also surrounds the pulmonary trunk in a common sheath. ❑The origin of the ascending aorta is the aortic orifice, at the level of the lower border of the 3rd. left costal cartilage, posterior to the left half of the sternum. Moving superiorly, slightly forward and to the right, the ascending aorta continues to the level of the 2nd. right costal cartilage. At this point, it enters the superior mediastinum and is then referred to as the arch of the aorta. Dr.ABDELHAMID The ascending aorta DR.ABDELHAMID 4 The ascending aorta ❑Immediately above the aortic valve, the ascending aorta presents three small outward bulges opposite the semilunar cusps of the aortic valve. These are the aortic sinuses. Where the right and left coronary arteries originate from the anterior and left posterior aortic sinuses, respectively. Dr.ABDELHAMID Arch of aorta and its branches The arch of the aorta is present in the superior mediastinum. It begins when the ascending aorta emerges from the pericardial sac and courses upward, backward, and to the left as it passes through the superior mediastinum, ending on the left side at the lower border of vertebra T4 The arch is initially anterior and finally on the left side of the trachea. Three branches arise from the superior border of the arch of the aorta; at their origins, all three are crossed anteriorly by the left brachiocephalic vein. Dr.ABDELHAMID Arch of aorta and its branches 8/25/2024 Dr.ABDELHAMID 7 Branches of Arch of aorta 1-Brachiocephalic trunk. It is the largest of the three branches. Above the right sternoclavicular joint, the brachiocephalic trunk divides into: right common carotid artery right subclavian artery. These arteries mainly supply the right 1/2 of the head and neck and the right upper limb, respectively. Dr.ABDELHAMID Branches of Arch of aorta 2- Left common carotid artery. It ascends through the superior mediastinum along the left side of the trachea. It supplies the left 1/2 of the head and neck. 3-Left subclavian artery. It ascends through the superior mediastinum along the left side of the trachea. It supplies the the left upper limb. Thyroid ima artery may arise from brachiocephalic trunk or as a direct branch from arch of aorta. It contributes to the vascular supply of the thyroid gland. Dr.ABDELHAMID Ligamentum arteriosum The ligamentum arteriosum is a short fibrous band which connects the left pulmonary artery with arch of aorta, distal to the origin of the left subclavian artery. It is important in embryonic circulation, when it is a patent vessel (the ductus arteriosus) which allows blood to bypass the lungs during development. The vessel closes soon after birth and forms the ligamentous arteriosum. 1- Anterior relations Superficial cardiac plexus. 2- Posterior relations Left recurrent laryngeal nerve. Dr.ABDELHAMID Descending Thoracic aorta ❑ The descending thoracic aorta begins at the lower border of vertebra T4 , where it is continuous with the arch of aorta. ❑ It ends anterior to the lower border of vertebra T12 , where it passes through the aortic hiatus of the diaphragm. ❑ It lies to the left side of the vertebral column superiorly, it approaches the midline inferiorly, lying directly anterior to the lower thoracic vertebral bodies. ❑ Throughout its course, it gives off a number of branches, which are summarized in Table 3.3. Dr.ABDELHAMID Branches of Descending Thoracic Aorta 8/25/2024 Dr.ABDELHAMID 12 Coarctation of Aorta Clinical picture: Brachial artery pressure is markedly increased and femoral artery pressure is decreased. 8/25/2024 Dr.ABDELHAMID 13 Pulmonary trunk Pulmonary trunk ❑ Course and surface marking: 1. It is about 5 cm long. 2. It begins at the pulmonary orifice of the right ventricle behind the 3rd. Left costal cartilage. 3. It ends in the concavity of the aortic arch behind the 2nd. Left costal cartilage by dividing into right &left pulmonary arteries. 4. Its root presents 3 sinuses just above its valve cusps ( 2 anterior &one posterior) Dr.ABDELHAMID 15 Pulmonary trunk ❑ Relations: Pulmonary trunk lies within the fibrous pericardium in the middle mediastinum. It is enclosed with the ascending aorta in a common tube of serous pericardium - Right relations Right auricle + right coronary artery - Left relations Left auricle + left coronary artery Dr.ABDELHAMID 16 Branches of Pulmonary trunk ❑ Right pulmonary artery: 1. Longer & larger than the left one 2. Runs behind the ascending aorta &SVC ❑ Left pulmonary artery: is connected to the aortic arch by ligamentum arteriosum Dr.ABDELHAMID 17 Brachiocephalic veins ❑ Each brachiocephalic vein is formed by the union of the internal jugular and subclavian veins posterior to the medial end of the corresponding clavicle. ❑ Both unite to form the SVC posterior to the lower border of the 1st right costal cartilage near to the sternum. ❑ Both lie in the superior mediastinum and both have NO valves. ❑ The right brachiocephalic vein: It is short (2.5 cm long ) and has a vertical course. Right relations Right phrenic nerve. Right pleura and lung. Dr.ABDELHAMID 18 Brachiocephalic veins Relations of Left Brachiocephalic vein Tributaries of Brachiocephalic veins Left Brachiocephalic Vein ❑ The left brachiocephalic vein: It is (5 cm long ) and has an oblique course. It runs downwards and to the right behind the upper ½ of manubrium sterni. ❑ Relations: the vein crosses anterior to the 3 big branches of aortic arch Dr.ABDELHAMID 22 Tributaries of Brachiocephalic veins ❑ Common tributaries: 1. Internal jugular vein 2. Subclavian vein 3. Inferior thyroid vein 4. Vertebral vein 5. Internal thoracic vein 6. First posterior intercostal vein ❑ Special tributaries of: left superior intercostal vein to the left one. Note: Right superior intercostal vein drains in the azygos vein. Dr.ABDELHAMID 23 Superior vena cava (SVC) ▪ Superior vena cava is a large venous channel (7 cm long )which collects venous blood from the upper half of the body and drains it into the right atrium. ▪ It is formed by the union of the right and left brachiocephalic veins behind the lower border of the sternal end of the 1st right costal cartilage. ▪ It pierces the pericardium opposite the 2nd right costal cartilage. ▪ It terminates by opening into the upper part of the right atrium behind the 3rd right costal cartilage. ▪ It has no valves.

At the level of distal (lower) border of teres major. Termination: In the cubital fossa. At the level of the neck of the radius. It divides into: 1. Ulnar artery: that runs medially. 2. Radial artery: that runs laterally. Anterior View of Whole Course and the Brachial artery is superficial along its course. Upper Limb It is covered by skin & fascia (dangerous position). important Showed three arteries at Has a triple relation with the median nerve: the same line (yellow, relations: ▪ In the upper 1/3 of arm: the nerve lies lateral to the artery. blue & red continuation) ▪ In the middle 1/3 of arm: the nerve crosses the artery superficially. & two arteries (green ▪ In the lower 1/3 of arm: the nerve lies medial to the artery. divisions) Suprascapular and Brachial Arteries By Dr. Hassan Rezk August 29, 2024 12 VESSELS OF UPPER LIMB Suprascapular and Brachial Arteries By Dr. Hassan Rezk August 29, 2024 13 L M VESSELS OF UPPER LIMB Anterior View of right arm & cubital fossa Showed triple relation between brachial artery & median nerve Suprascapular and Brachial Arteries By Dr. Hassan Rezk August 29, 2024 14 VESSELS OF UPPER LIMB Neck of radius Suprascapular and Brachial Arteries By Dr. Hassan Rezk August 29, 2024 15 Branches of Brachial Artery VESSELS OF UPPER LIMB 1) Profunda Brachi artery (Deep Brachial artery): ▪ Largest & 1st branch near the origin of the brachial artery. ▪ Winds backwards to appear in the triangular interval with radial nerve. ▪ Runs in the spiral groove accompanied by radial nerve. ▪ It is the main arterial supply to the posterior compartment. ▪ It gives: 1. Muscular branches to triceps brachi. 2. Anterior (radial) collateral artery. in relation to lateral epicondyle of the humerus. 3. Posterior (middle) collateral arteries: 2) Nutrient artery: to supply the humerus.
