Internal features of Heart Dr. Sama ul Haque
Objectives • List the chambers of the heart. • Describe the internal features of right atrium. • Describe the internal features of the right ventricle. • Discuss internal features of the left atrium. • Discuss the internal features of the left ventricle. • Differentiate between right and left ventricles. • Define conducting system of the heart.
Chambers of Heart • Right Atrium • Right Ventricle • Left Atrium • Left Ventricle
Right Atrium Rough anterior part. Smooth posterior part. Crista Terminalis 1 Musculi pectinati (Pectinate muscles) 2
Right Atrium Posterior wall of the right atrium: • Opening of the superior vena cava • Opening and valve of the inferior vena cava • Opening and valve of the coronary sinus • Fossa ovalis and the limbus fossa ovalis Anterior wall of the right atrium: • Pectinate muscles • Crista terminalis
Right Ventricle • Tricuspid valve hasthree cusps: anterior, septal, and posterior. • Three papillary muscles: anterior, septal, and posterior. The anterior papillary muscle is the largest and most prominent. • Trabeculae carneae (rough muscular ridges).
Right Ventricle • The septomarginal trabecula (moderator band): extends from the interventricular septum to the base of the anterior papillary muscle. • The conus arteriosus (infundibulum): is the cone-shaped portion of the right ventricle inferior to the opening of the pulmonary trunk. • The pulmonary valve: consists of three semilunar cusps: anterior, right, and left.
Left Atrium • Receives blood from lungs: Through 4 pulmonary veins (2 right & 2 left) • Bicuspid valve: blood passes through it into left ventricle (mitral valve has two cusps).
Left Ventricle • Aortic valve: has three semilunar valve cusps: right, left, and posterior. • Left atrioventricular valve (bicuspid valve or mitral valve): has anterior & posterior cusps.
Left Ventricle • Anterior papillary muscle and the posterior papillary muscle: the chordae tendineae of each papillary muscle attach to both valve cusps. • Trabeculaecarneae.
Valves of the Heart • Right Atrioventricular (Tricuspid) • Left Atrioventricular (Bicuspid or Mitral) • Pulmonary • Aortic 3 4 2 1
Fibrous Skeleton of the Heart Dense collagenous fibrous tissue framework lies at the junction of the atria with the ventricles. Includes: 1-Tricuspid fibrous annulus: 2-Mitral fibrous annulus 3-Pulmonary fibrous annulus: 4-Aortic fibrous annulus Functions: 1-Supports the valves. 2-Electrically separetes atria from ventricles.

Conducting system of Heart • Sinu-Atrial Node (S-A Node) • Atrio-ventricular Node (A-V Node) • Atrio-ventricular Bundle • Right and left Bundle branch • Purkinje Fibers
