  2. Cardiac skeleton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_skeleton

    The right and left fibrous rings of heart (annuli fibrosi cordis) surround the atrioventricular and arterial orifices. The right fibrous ring is known as the annulus fibrosus dexter cordis, and the left is known as the annulus fibrosus sinister cordis. [3] The right fibrous trigone is continuous with the central fibrous body.

  3. Koch's triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koch's_triangle

    The base is formed by the coronary sinus orifice and the vestibule of the right atrium, and the hypotenuse is formed by the tendon of Todaro, which is often a continuation off the Eustachian valve. Other structures near to it are the membranous septum and the Eustachian ridge. Variations in the size of Koch's triangle are common.

    The right fibrous trigone is the strongest part of the skeleton. It lies to the right of the aortic valve and connects it with the mitral and tricuspid valves. It is pierced by the bundle of His. Lastly, the aortomitral curtain is also a part of the fibrous skeleton; it is formed by fibrous tissue connecting two of three of the aortic valve ...

    The right fibrous trigone is continuous with the central fibrous body. This is the strongest part of the fibrous cardiac skeleton . Does that indicate: The right trigone is the strongest part of cardiac skeleton - or - Fibrous rings are strongest part of cardiac skeleton ? Kurosh 16:17, 3 September 2024 (UTC)

  6. Bundle of His - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundle_of_His

    The bundle of His (BH) [1]: 58 or His bundle (HB) [1]: 232 (/ h ɪ s / "hiss" [2]) is a collection of heart muscle cells specialized for electrical conduction.As part of the electrical conduction system of the heart, it transmits the electrical impulses from the atrioventricular node (located between the atria and the ventricles) to the point of the apex of the fascicular branches via the ...

  7. Papillary muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papillary_muscle

    The papillary muscles of both the right and left ventricles begin to contract shortly before ventricular systole and maintain tension throughout. [1] This prevents regurgitation—backward flow of ventricular blood into the atrial cavities—by bracing the atrioventricular valves against prolapse—being forced back into the atria by the high ...

  8. Lateral ventricles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_ventricles

    Lateral ventricles and horns The lateral ventricles connected to the third ventricle by the interventricular foramina. Each lateral ventricle takes the form of an elongated curve, with an additional anterior-facing continuation emerging inferiorly from a point near the posterior end of the curve; the junction is known as the trigone of the lateral ventricle.

  9. Perineal membrane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perineal_membrane

    The perineal membrane is an anatomical term for a fibrous membrane in the perineum. The term "inferior fascia of urogenital diaphragm", used in older texts, is considered equivalent to the perineal membrane. It is the superior border of the superficial perineal pouch, and the inferior border of the deep perineal pouch.
