The document provides an overview of heart anatomy including: 1. It describes the general characteristics of the heart such as its location in the mediastinum behind the sternum, that it lies within a fibrous pericardial sac, and that it has four chambers and a three-layered wall. 2. It outlines the four chambers of the heart - right atrium, left atrium, right ventricle, and left ventricle - as well as the conduction system and cardiac valves. 3. It discusses the coronary arteries including the left main, left anterior descending, and left circumflex arteries, as well as the coronary veins that drain deoxygenated blood from the heart muscle

1. Left Atrium  receives blood from the four
pulmonary veins
--superior/inferior, right/left
• walls are slightly thicker than
right atrium and smooth except
for auricles whichhave pectinate
muscles
• PA : double density (
double contour) of right
heart border
• bulging left atrial
appendage
• Upward and posterior
displacement of left main
bronchus ---- widening
carinal angle
2. Left Ventricle • performs more work than the
right ventricle
⇒ wall is twice as thick as that
of the right ventricle
Left AV Valve (Mitral Valve)
--bicuspid (anterior & posterior
papillary muscle)
•PA : cardiac apex may be
displaced to the extent
that it projects below the
diaphragm

14. Pericardial cavity
• which is continuous with the central tendon of the diaphragm and which
extends to the root of the aorta and the pulmonary artery.
16
Pericardial Fluid
• secreted by pericardial membranes
• acts as lubricant, reducing friction
between the opposing surfaces as the
heart beats

• Left main coronary artery : The left main coronary artery (LCA) originates from the ostium of the
left sinus of Valsalva. The LCA, which courses between the left atrial appendage and the
pulmonary artery, typically is 1-2 cm in length. When it reaches the left AV groove, the LCA
bifurcates into the left anterior descending (LAD) and the LCX branches. The LCA supplies most
of the left atrium, left ventricle, interventricular septum, and AV bundles. The LCA arises from the
left aortic sinus and courses between the left auricle and the pulmonary trunk to reach the
coronary groove
• Left anterior descending artery : After originating from the left main artery, the LAD artery runs
along the anterior interventricular sulcus and supplies the apical portion of both ventricles. The
LAD artery is mostly epicardial but can be intramuscular in places. An important identifying
characteristic of the LAD artery during angiography is the identification of 4-6 perpendicular septal
branches. These branches, approximately 7.5 cm in length, supply the interventricular septum.
The first branch of the LAD artery is termed the ramus intermedius. In fewer than 1% of patients,
the LCA is absent, and the LAD and LCX arteries originate from the aorta via 2 separate ostia. As
the LAD artery passes along the anterior interventricular groove toward the apex, it turns sharply
to anastomose with the posterior interventricular branch of the RCA. As the LAD artery courses
anteriorly along the ventricular septum, it sends off diagonal branches to the lateral wall of the left
ventricle. Congenital LAD artery variations may include its duplication as 2 parallel arteries (4%
incidence) and length variations (premature or delayed distal termination).

17. • Left circumflex artery : The LCA gives off the LCX artery at a right angle
near the base of the left atrial appendage. The LCX artery courses in the
coronary groove around the left border of the heart to the posterior surface
of the heart to anastomose to the end of the RCA. In the AV groove, the
LCX artery lies close to the annulus of the mitral valve. The atrial circumflex
artery, the first branch off the LCX artery, supplies the left atrium. The LCX
artery gives off an obtuse marginal (OM) branch at the left border of the
heart near the base of the left atrial appendage to supply the posterolateral
surface of the left ventricle. The color contrast between the yellow-orange
OM and the adjacent red-brown myocardium may be the most reliable way
to identify this artery intraoperatively. In patients with a left-dominant heart,
the LCX artery supplies the PDA. Many variations in the origin and length of
the LCX artery are noted. In fewer than 40% of patients, the sinus node
artery may originate from the LCX artery.

A 39-year-old woman presents with the
complaint of dyspnea on exertion and
paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea. The
onset of symptoms began insidiously
about 1 year ago. The symptoms seem
to have worsened over the past several
weeks. She describes a chronic cough
with occasional blood-streaked sputum.
She denies chest pain, fever, weight
loss or other symptoms.
The patient's medical history is significant
for childhood rheumatic fever. She does
not consume alcohol, nicotine or illicit
drugs.
