TOPOGRAPHIC ANATOMY OF THE RIGHT ATRIUM AND ITS RELEVANCE IN CATHETERIZATION PROCEDURES
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Аннотация:
The topographic anatomy of the right atrium is fundamental to understanding its function within the cardiovascular system and its relevance to numerous medical procedures, particularly cardiac catheterization. Serving as the primary chamber that receives deoxygenated blood from the superior and inferior vena cavae and the coronary sinus, the right atrium plays a critical role in cardiac physiology by temporarily collecting blood before it is transferred to the right ventricle. Its distinct structural characteristics—such as thin muscular walls, pectinate muscles, and key internal landmarks—highlight its importance in both normal cardiac function and clinical applications.
