2. Tricuspid valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricuspid_valve

   The tricuspid valve, or right atrioventricular valve, is on the right dorsal side of the mammalian heart, at the superior portion of the right ventricle.The function of the valve is to allow blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle during diastole, and to close to prevent backflow (regurgitation) from the right ventricle into the right atrium during right ventricular ...

   The heart is a muscular organ situated in the mediastinum.It consists of four chambers, four valves, two main arteries (the coronary arteries), and the conduction system. The left and right sides of the heart have different functions: the right side receives de-oxygenated blood through the superior and inferior venae cavae and pumps blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery, and the left ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koch's_triangle

   It is an anatomical area located at the base of the right atrium, and its boundaries are the coronary sinus orifice, tendon of Todaro, and the septal leaflet of the right atrioventricular valve (also known as the tricuspid valve). [2] It is anatomically significant because the atrioventricular node is located at the apex of the triangle. The ...

7. Atrium (heart) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrium_(heart)

   The blood in the atria is pumped into the heart ventricles through the atrioventricular mitral and tricuspid heart valves. There are two atria in the human heart – the left atrium receives blood from the pulmonary circulation , and the right atrium receives blood from the venae cavae of the systemic circulation .

9. Cardiac skeleton - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_skeleton

   The atrioventricular rings serve for the attachment of the muscular fibers of the atria and ventricles, and for the attachment of the bicuspid and tricuspid valves. [3] The left atrioventricular ring is closely connected, by its right margin, with the aortic arterial ring; between these and the right atrioventricular ring is a triangular mass ...
