HEART
The wall consist of three layers:
Epicardium: a thin external layer
Divisions:
Four chambers:
- right and left atria
- right and left ventricles
The right atrium: superior & inferior
vena cava
coronary sinus
The right ventricle: the largest portion
of the anterior (sternocostal) surface
Coronary arteries (RCA and LCA):
The first branches of the aorta
Arises from the corresponding aortic
sinuses at the proximal part of the
ascending aorta, just superior to aortic
valve
Supply the myocardium and epicardium
Coronary arteries: supply both the atria
and ventricles, however the atrial
branches are usually small

The heart is drained mainly by veins
that empty into the coronary sinus
and partly by small anterior cardiac
veins that empty directly into the right
atrium and the other chambers
(smallest cardiac veins)
Sinoatrial node (sinus node)
Purkinje fibers
