3 Νοε 2023 · The pericardium is the membrane that encloses the heart and the roots of the major heart vessels, consisting of an outer fibrous layer (fibrous pericardium) and an inner double serous membrane layer (serous pericardium).
In this review, the living anatomy of the pericardial space and its surrounding structures is demonstrated using three-dimensional images and printed models. In 1996, Sosa et al. first introduced the epicardial approach for treatment of refractory ventricular tachycardia (1).
1 Δεκ 2021 · Living anatomy of the pericardial space was reconstructed and was demonstrated with 3-dimensional images/prints. Precise knowledge of the 3-dimensional pericardial space will support further sophisticated epicardial interventions.
15 Δεκ 2023 · Fibrous pericardium: The fibrous outer layer of the pericardium. It is continuous with the tendon of the diaphragm and is comprised of robust connective tissue that functions to keep the heart from overexpanding when blood volume (inside of the heart) increases.
Function. The fibrous layer ensures stability by attaching to surrounding structures namely the sternum, vertebral column, and diaphragm. It also provides a physical limit to prevent excessive dilation or overfilling in certain types of heart failure. Additionally, it provides a barrier to the spread of infection.
19 Ιουλ 2022 · Fibrous pericardium: This is the tough, outermost layer of your pericardium. It’s made of connective tissue that prevents your heart from expanding too much. It attaches to your great vessels (at the top of your heart) and to the central tendon of your diaphragm (at the bottom of your heart).
Diagram of systemic, pulmonary, and coronary circulations. Adapted from Marieb et al., Human Anatomy, Pearson Education. The heart is a modified tube that is continuous with the blood vessels of the body through the large veins and arteries that lead into and out of the heart.
