Abstract:
Objective To study the sectional anatomy of the cardiac septum to provide the reference for clinical imageology and surgery. Methods Sixteen normal adult hearts without organic lesions were verified macroscopically. After vascular perfusion, the specimens were embedded with gel, fixed with 5% formalin, and cryopreserved for a week, and then were sectioned with the Digital Sectioner. Results A total of 1 608 slices (thickness: 0.2 mm) of the heart were obtained. Cardiac septum and the surrounding structures were shown clearly. The demarcation of connective and muscular tissues was clear. The diameters of the cardiac apex, fossa ovalis, brawny intraventricular septum, left ventricle, right ventricle, left and right fibrous trigone were measured with Photoshop6.0. Conclusion The clear images can display tiny structures that could be measured, which could provide anatomical references clinical imageology and surgery.
