Abstract:
1.The external features and arterial supply of the papillary muscles of the leftventricle were studied in 54 human,52 dogs' and 110 rabbits' hearts.Radiopaquemedium or Chinese ink were injected into coronary arteries.After injection,arter-iography of some hearts were taken,and serial celloidin sections of the papillarymuscles of other hearts were made.The diameters of the papillary arteries and thedensity of the vessels were measured.2.The papillary muscles could be divided into three patterns,depending on theextent of their attachment to the ventricular wall and the relative length of theirfree part protruding into the ventricular cavity.The three patterns were as follows:(1)The attached type,the papillary muscle was largely adherent to the sucbjacentventricular myocardium,with only one third or less of its length protruding into theventricular cavity(34% in human hearts,100% in dogs' and 38% in rabbits').(2)The free type,the free end of the papillary muscle was one half of its length ormore(28% in human hearts,10% in rabbits').(3)The intermediate type,thelength of the free protruding part of the papillary muscle was intermediate between(1)and(2)(38% in human hearts,52% in rabbits').3.In the human and the dogs' hearts the anterolateral papillary muscle receivedbranches from the anterior descending artery and the diagonal left ventricularbranches or the left circumflex artery;while in the rabbits' it received branchesmainly from the anterior branches of the left ventricular artery.The posteromedialpapillary muscle received a variable supply from the left circumflex artery and orthe branches of the right coronary artery in the dogs' hearts and in the human hearts,while in the rabbits' hearts,it mainly received branches from the posteriorbranches of the left ventricular artery.4.The arrangement of the arterial vasculature of the papillary muscle seemedto be related to the different patterns of the papillary muscles.The free typereceived a large central artery which coursed through the entire papillary muscle toits apex(87.5%).The attached type had a segmental supply of 3～9 long penetrat-ing intramyocardial vessels(94.29%).The intermediate type had a combination ofboth types of vascular arrangement(98.5%).5.The average diameter of the central arteries was 617.50 ? in human hearts atits entry into the base of the papillary muscle,and 236.05 ? in rabbits.The dia-meters of the segmental arteries were 323.60 ? in human hearts,300.05 ? in dogs',121.78 ? in rabbits' respectively.The diameters of the capillary vessels were 5～8 ?in human hearts,3～6 ? in dogs',2.5～6 ? in rabbits' respectively.The numbersof capillaries that observed in a length of 200? were 15.45 in human hearts,16.2in dogs',19.3 in rabbits'.The specific values of the density of vessels per unitarea were 34.4% in human hearts,34.1% in dogs',56% in rabbits'.
