Lecture Concepts Flashcards
Parietal means
Wall
Purpose of serosas?
Serous membrane that produce a serous fluid that prevent frictions and adherences among organs (viscera) or organs with cavity walls
Four components of serosas
parietal serous layer, serous fluid, visceral serous layer, pleura
If sack around heart pinned from bottom up, what layer is pinned first?
Parietal serous pericardium
If sack around heart pinned from top up, what layer is pinned first?
Fibrous pericardium
What vessel is contained in paraconal groove?
Great coronary vein
What vessel is contained in coronary groove?
Circumflex branch of left coronary artery
What vessel is contained in subsinuosal groove?
Middle cardiac (coronary) vein
What connects lungs to mediastinum?
Pulmonary ligaments (only caudal lungs)
In the dog the tunica muscularis of the esophagus is composed of
Entirely skeletal muscle
In the dog the tunica muscularis of the esophagus is composed of
Skeletal to smooth muscle (smooth muscle predominant in caudal portion)
Left lateral view, suspect diverticulum, how to check?
Make sure that the order is pulmonary trunk > aorta > esophagus, esophagus should be right + behind aorta
Right lateral view, suspect diverticulum, how to check?
Caudal + cranial vena cava > Aorta > Esophagus
Coronary artery gives rise to
Right and left coronary arteries
Coronary arteries responsibility
Supply oxygen rich blood to heart
Only what side of azygos vein develops in the dog and cat?
Right
Aortic arch location
Where aorta bends caudally
Aortic arch branches
Brachiocephalic trunk and left subclavian
Brachiocephalic trunk branches
Continues into left and right common carotid arteries and right subclavian
Left common carotid artery runs
Branch of brachiocephalic trunk, runs into neck on respective side
Right common carotid artery runs
Branch of brachiocephalic trunk, runs into neck on respective side
Right subclavian a goes to
Right thoracic limb
Left subclavian or brachiocephalic, which is more dorsal?
Left subclavian
Vertebral a supplies
Veterbra, hypaxial/epaxial m, spine
Costocervical trunk supplies
First 3 intercostal spaces
Superficial cervical a supplies
Muscles and structures most superficial in neck
Axillary a. supplies
Thoracic limb (mama <3)
Internal thoracic a. supplies
Intercostal spaces ventrally
List the names of the arteries branching off of the left subclavian
Vertebral a
Costocervical trunk
Superficial cervical a
Axillary a
Internal thoracic a
What branches off of ascending aorta?
Coronary arteries
What branches off of descending aorta in thoracic cavity?
Bronchoesophageal
Dorsal intercostal
Dorsal intercostal aa., which rise from costocervical trunk?
1-3
Dorsal intercostal aa., which rise from descending aorta?
4-13
Ventral intercostal aa. arise from what?
Internal thoracic a.
