Cardiac septa

The cardiac septa refer to the muscular walls located between the two atria (interatrial septum) and the two ventricles (interventricular septum). (1,3)

Interatrial septum:

The interatrial septum is a thin septum that separates the two atria. (1)

Fossa ovalis of right atrium:

The fossa ovalis is a depression located in the lower part of the interatrial septum. It is located at the site of the former foramen ovale and is especially noticeable after birth. (1,5)

Limbus fossae ovalis:

The limbus fossae ovalis is a prominent margin that borders the oval fossa, It is more proeminent above and on the margins. (1,5)

Atrioventricular septum:

An offset in the attachment of the two atrioventricular valves situates a portion of the ventricular septum in an atrioventricular position. This particular section is recognized as the atrioventricular septum. It is positioned posterior to the hinge of the tricuspid valve. (4, 6)

Cardiac Septa: Interventricular Septum, हृदय सीताएँ: बैद्यांत्रिक सीतल, 心房间隔：室间隔, Cardiac Septa: Interventricular Septum, Сердечные перегородки: Межжелудочковая перегородка, الحواجز القلبية: الحاجز بين البطينين, Cardiac Septa: Interventricular Septum, Septa Jantung: Septum Interventrikular, حواجز قلب: حاجز بين البطينين, হৃদয় পর্দাসমূহ: মধ্যবেঞ্চিক পর্দা, Cardiac Septa: Interventricular Septum, Серцеві перегородки: Міжшлуночкова перегородка, Kalp Septaları: İnterventriküler Septum, حواجز قلب: حاجز بين البطينين, Vách tim: Vách bất đối xứng, กั้นหัวใจ: กั้นห้องหลังหัวใจกับห้องหน้าหัวใจ. — AR Figure 84 –Cardiac septa: Interventricular septum, Augmented Illustration by B.

Interventricular septum:

The ventricular septum, also known as the interventricular septum, is a muscular structure that divides the left and right ventricles of the heart..It cosists of a thick muscular part, and a thin membranous part. (1,3)

Muscular part of interventricular septum:

It is the thick muscular part of the interventricular septum. (1,7)

Membranous part of interventricular septum:

The membranous septum is primarily composed of fibrous tissue and represents the thin part of the interventricular septum. (1, 2, 3 )
