  • Physiology of Heart Unit-4 (ZOOA-CC4-9-TH)
    Physiology of Heart Unit-4 (ZOOA-CC4-9-TH) Coronary Circulation: The heart muscle, like every other organ or tissue in your body, needs oxygen-rich blood to survive. Blood is supplied to the heart by its own vascular system, called coronary circulation. The aorta (the main blood supplier to the body) branches off into two main coronary blood vessels (also called arteries). These coronary arteries branch off into smaller arteries, which supply oxygen-rich blood to the entire heart muscle. The right coronary artery supplies blood mainly to the right side of the heart. The right side of the heart is smaller because it pumps blood only to the lungs. The left coronary artery, which branches into the left anterior descending artery and the circumflex artery, supplies blood to the left side of the heart. The left side of the heart is larger and more muscular because it pumps blood to the rest of the body. Coronary circulation is the circulation of blood in the blood vessels that supply the heart muscle (myocardium). Coronary arteries supply oxygenated blood to the heart muscle, and cardiac veins drain away the blood once it has been deoxygenated. Because the rest of the body, and most especially the brain, needs a steady supply of oxygenated blood that is free of all but the slightest interruptions, the heart is required to function continuously. Therefore its circulation is of major importance not only to its own tissues but to the entire body and even the level of consciousness of the brain from moment to moment.

Internal Medicine, North Eastern Indira Gandhi Regional Institute of Health and Medical Sciences, Shillong, IND 5. Cardiology, Vardhman Mahavir Medical College (VMMC) and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, IND Corresponding author: Amit Malviya, [email protected] Abstract Thebesian veins in the heart are subendocardial venoluminal channels and are usually less than 0.5 mm in diameter. The system of TV either opens a venous (venoluminal) or an arterial (arterioluminal) channel directly into the lumen of the cardiac chambers or via some intervening spaces (venosinusoidal/ arteriosinusoidal) termed as sinusoids. Enlarged thebesian veins are reported in patients with congenital heart disease and usually, multiple veins are enlarged. Very few reports of such abnormal enlargement are there in the absence of congenital heart disease, but in all such cases, they are multiple and in association with coronary artery microfistule. We report a very rare case of a singular thebesian vein in the right atrium, which was abnormally enlarged. It is important to recognize because it can be confused with other cardiac structures like coronary sinus during diagnostic or therapeutic catheterization and can lead to cardiac injury and complications if it is attempted to cannulate it or pass the guidewires.

  • CARDIOLOGY PHYSIOLOGY Part 1 Describe the Adult Coronary Circulation the Left Main and Right Coronary Arteries Originate At
    CARDIOLOGY PHYSIOLOGY Part 1 Describe the adult coronary circulation The left main and right coronary arteries originate at the base of the aorta, from the coronary ostia, which is located behind the aortic leaflets. These two arteries lie on the surface of the heart whereas the smaller arteries penetrate the epicardium and supply blood to the myocardium. The left main coronary artery arises from the posterior aortic sinus above the left coronary cusp of the aortic valve and has two main branches, the circumflex and the left anterior descending artery. The circumflex artery lies in the left atrioventricular groove and supplies most of the left atrium and the posterior and lateral parts of the left ventricle. It, also with the left anterior descending artery, supplies the anterolateral papillary muscle. The circumflex artery has several branches including; atrial branches and obtuse marginal branches 1, 2 and 3. In 10% of people the circumflex supplies the posterior descending artery, this is termed ‘left dominant circulation’. Also, in 40% of the population, the circumflex supplies the sinoatrial node. The left anterior descending artery, which is also known as the anterior interventricular branch, follows the anterior interventricular sulcus down to the apex of the heart where it often anastomoses with the terminal branches of the posterior descending artery. It supplies the anterolateral portions of the heart, the anterior 2/3 of the interventricular septum. Important branches include the diagonal branches, which run laterally to supply the anterolateral wall of the LV, and the septal branches which supplies the anterior 2/3 of the interventricular septum.
