Layers of Pericardium
Fibrous pericardium:
Layers of Pericardium
Serous pericardium:
Parietal & Viceral layers
Parietal attached
to fibrous layer
Viceral also
called epicardium,
fat deposition found
in this layer
Pericardial fluid:
Is a product of plasma
ultrafiltration mainly
lymphatic capilary
A. Full thickness of
parietal
pericardium,
consisted of wavy
collagen (yellow)
and short fibrin
(black)
B. Blood vessels
shown between
collagen fiber
C. Viceral
pericardium
epicardium) Single
layer of mesothelial
cells are lining on
collagen fiber and
adipose tissue
D. Viceral
pericardium. Single
layer of mesothelial
Is a continum of
endothelial lining in blood
vessels
The skeleton
The receptors
Parasimpathetic innervated from vagus (X) nerve to SA and AV nodes, and atrium
releasing acetylcholine (ACh) slowing heart rate
Coronary circulation
Coronary crown
Two main braches: left and right coronary arteries, originate from
foramen of ascending aorta
Coronary veins drain into coronary sinus at the posterior of heart and
eventually to right atrium
