What is the diagnosis for this horse?
Identify the muscle that is extremely defined (undergoing hypertrophy) and highlighted with the black arrow.
Horse with heaves (exhibit forced expiration)
The line is the external abdominal oblique muscle
Identify the numbered structures:
- ) Heart
- ) Visceral pericardium (epicardium)
- ) Pericardial cavity
- ) Parietal pericardium
- ) Fibrous layer of the pericardium
- ) Mediastinal (pericardial) pleura
Which species (carnivore or large animal) has the sternopericardial ligament and the phrenicopericardial ligament.
Sternopericardial ligament: Large animal
Phrenicopericardial ligament: Carnivore
You would expect the fibrous layer of the pericardium to stretch under what conditions?
During chronic accumulation of fluid in the pericardial cavity.
Acute accumulation of fluid build up will not allow the fibrous layer to stretch and you will see a decrease in cardiac output.
Which ribs does the heart correspond with and is conserved across all species?
Ribs 3-6
What is important to remember when trying to oscultate a large animal?
The thoracic limb covers most of the area where the heart is located. Have to go behind the limb in order to hear the heart.
What view are you looking at?
Identify the structures:
- )
- )
- )
- )
Auricular side (left body wall)
- ) Left Ventricle
- ) Right Ventricle
- ) Left auricle
- ) Right auricle
What are the structures highlighted in yellow?
Identify the structures numbered:
- )
- )
Coronary grooves
- ) Paraconal interventricular groove
- ) Conus arteriosis
What structure does the paraconal interventricular groove correspond with?
The septum of the heart.
What is special about the fat deposited in the grooves of the heart?
They are the last fat reserves for the animal. If these are not present you know the animal was in severe negative energy balance.
Identify the structures labeled:
- )
- )
What view are you observing the heart from?
- ) Subsinuosal interventricular groove
- ) Coronary groove
Atrial surface
Identify the following structures (Heart/right atrial):
- )
- )
- )
- )
- )
- ) Caudal vena cava
- ) Intervenous tubercle
- ) Cranial vena cava
- ) Coronary sinus
- ) fossa ovalis
Identify the following structures labeled:
- )
- )
- )
- )
- )
- )
- )
- ) Right atrium

- ) Trabeculae carnea
- ) Chordae Tendinae
Identify the following structures:
- )
- )
- )
- )
- ) Right atrioventricular valve (tricuspid)
- ) Circumflex branch of the right coronary artery
- ) Right coronary
- ) Subsinuosal interventricular branch
Identify the following structures labeled:
- )
- )
- )
- )
- )
- )
- ) Left atrioventricular valve (Bicuspid (mitral))
- ) Paraconal interventricular branch of the left coronary artery
- ) Left Coronary artery
- ) Circumflex branch of the left coronary artery
- ) Aortic (semilunar) valve
- ) Pulmonary (semilunar) valve
Blood supply to the heart.
What does the red color indicate?
What does the white color indicate?
Which species have this type of blood supply to the heart?
Red color is the left coronary artery and the area it supplies.
White color is the right coronary artery and the area it supplies.
This is an example of a “left coronary artery predominating” and is common in the dog and the cow.
Blood supply to the heart.
What does the red color indicate?
What does the white color indicate?
Which species have this kind of blood supply to the heart?
Red color indicates the area supplied by the left coronary artery.
The white color indicates the area supplied by the right coronary artery.
This is an example of “Bilateral” blood supply meaning that both the R/L coronary arteries contribute equally. Seen in species such as the pig and horse.
Describe the cardiac skeleton. Where is it found? What is it composed of? What is the significance of this structure?
It is found at the base of the heart situated around the aortic orifice between the atria and the ventricles.
It is composed of connective tissue, cartilage, and in some cases bone (large animals)
It gives something for the ventricles to contract against. It also helps in separating electrical signals between the artria and the ventricles.
Fill in the chart for the anatomical positions of the valves in the horse, ox and dog.
Hints:
Right AV valve projects to the right, best heard on the right side, in a relatively cranial location
Pulmonary, Aortic, Left AV valves project to the left and are best heard on the left side
Cranial to caudal: Pulmonary–>Aortic–>Left AV
