Blood vessels of the human heart: coronarography and dissection

Abstract

We investigated by means of coronarography and dissection the arterial vascularization of the human heart in relation to the type of coronary ramification in 200 human hearts taken at random from males and females between 20 and 85 years of age. Examination of the selective coronarography findings was subsequently performed by means of careful dissection of the injected arteries and their branches in order to compare the results obtained with coronarographic findings in living human beings.

Third Coronary Artery – An Autopsy Study

“…15 The separate orifices for the TCA and the RCA had been explained by insufficient unification of these two vessels, during their growth towards the ascending aorta. 16,17 Had•iselimoviae 18 points out that even three coronary arteries may arise independently from the right aortic sinus what was confirmed by this study too. Literature uses different terms for identifying this artery: conal artery, preinfundiblar or supernumerary right coronary artery.…”

“…Literature uses different terms for identifying this artery: conal artery, preinfundiblar or supernumerary right coronary artery. [18][19][20] Literature describes cases with anastomosis of the coronary artery with the front interventricular branch, diagonal, circumflex one, as well as with the branches of the right coronary artery.
