   • Heart anatomy. The heart has five surfaces: base (posterior), diaphragmatic (inferior), sternocostal (anterior), and left and right pulmonary surfaces. It also has several margins: right, left, superior, and inferior
   • Heart valves. Heart valves separate atria from ventricles, and ventricles from great vessels. The valves incorporate two or three leaflets (cusps) around the atrioventricular orifices and the roots of great vessels.
   • Blood flow through the heart. The blood flow through the heart is quite logical. It happens with the heart cycle, which consists of the periodical contraction and relaxation of the atrial and ventricular myocardium (heart muscle tissue).
   • Coronary circulation. The heart must also be supplied with oxygenated blood. This is done by the two coronary arteries: left and right. Heart muscles work constantly (thank goodness!)

   Oct 20, 2024 · The shape of the heart is similar to a pinecone, rather broad at the superior surface (the base, on the posterior side) and tapering to the apex (Figure 17.2.1 17.2. 1). The apex of the heart is inferior and to the left while the base of the heart is superior and posterior.

   Where is the base of the heart located?

   • The base of the heart is located at the level of the third costal cartilage, as seen in Figure 17.2.1 17.2. 1. The inferior tip of the heart, the apex, lies just to the left of the sternum between the junction of the fourth and fifth ribs near their articulation with the costal cartilages.

   Where is the dorsal surface of the heart located?

   • The dorsal surface of the heart lies near the bodies of the vertebrae and its anterior surface sits deep to the sternum and costal cartilages. The great veins, the superior and inferior venae cavae, and the great arteries, the aorta and pulmonary trunk, are attached to the superior surface of the heart, called the base.

   Where is the heart located in the thoracic cavity?

   • The heart is contained within the pericardium. This serous membrane attaches to the large blood vessels superior to the heart and to the diaphragm and helps to anchor the heart in place within the thoracic cavity. The wall of the heart is composed of three layers of unequal thickness.

   Which part of the heart is connected to the myocardium?

   • The innermost layer of the heart wall, the endocardium, is joined to the myocardium with a thin layer of areolar connective tissue. The endocardium lines the chambers where the blood circulates and covers the heart valves.

    Your heart has four separate chambers. You have two chambers on the top (atrium, plural atria) and two on the bottom (ventricles), one on each side of your heart. Right atrium: Two large veins deliver oxygen-poor blood to your right atrium. The superior vena cava carries blood from your upper body.
