Q

Where is the atrioventricular nodal artery?

A

Distal end of right coronary artery as it forms the posterior interventricular artery. Supplies AV node.

22
Q

Where is the right marginal branch?

A

It’s given off as the right coronary artery approaches the inferior margin. It continues along the inferior margin to the apex.

23
Q

Where is the Posterior Interventricular artery?

A

Diaphragmatic surface of the heart.

24
Q

Where does the left coronary artery go?

A

Originates from left sinus and enters left aspect of coronary sulcus. Quickly divides.

25
Where does the anterior interventricular artery go?
Descends in anterior interventricular sulcus and supplies the anterior left ventricular wall, the anterior 2/3s of the interventricular septum, and the Bundle of His.
26
Where does the circumflex artery go?
Courses around left border of the heart.
27
Where does the Great Cardiac vein go?
Begins at apex, ascends in anterior interventricular sulcus. When it reaches the coronary sulcus, it banks left and continues onto the base of the heart.
28
Where does the middle cardiac vein go?
Begins near apex, ascends in posterior interventricular sulcus.
29
Where does the small cardiac vein go?
Begins in lower anterior section of coronary sulcus between the right atrium and ventricle, enters the coronary sinus at the atrial end.
30
What travels with the right coronary artery?
Small cardiac vein
31
What travels with the posterior interventricular artery?
Middle cardiac vein
32
What does the great cardiac vein travel with?
First the anterior interventricular artery, then the circumflex artery.
33
What travels with the small cardiac vein?
The right coronary artery
34
What travels with the middle cardiac vein?
Posterior interventricular artery
35
Where's the transverse sinus?
Behind the pulmonary trunk and the aorta
36
Where's the oblique sinus?
Behind the apex
37
What sits posterior to the left atrium?
The esophagus
38
Which coronary artery is considered dominant?
Whichever gives off the posterior interventricular artery
39
Pulmonary semilunar valve
Valve separating pulmonary trunk from right ventricle
40
Aortic semilunar valve
Valve separating aorta from left ventricle
41
Cusps of aortic semilunar valve
Left, right, and posterior
42
Cusps of pulmonary semilunar valve
Left, right, and anterior
43
Muscles within atria; makes the walls look rough
Pectinate muscles
44
Structure that separates sinus venarum from pectinate muscles in the right atrium
Terminal crest
45
Depressed area in the right atrium
Fossa ovalis
46
Elevated superior margin of the fossa ovalis
Limbus
47
Ventricular version of papillary muscles
Trebeculae carnae
48
Structure that provides a shortcut for electrical impulses within the right ventricle
Septamarginal trebecula (moderator band)
49
Muscles involved in closing of valves in ventricles
Papillary muscles
50
Thin white structures off of the papillary muscles
Chordae tendinae
