  • The serous pericardium, in turn, is divided into two parts: The parietal serous pericardium, which lines the interior side of the superficial portion of the pericardial sac, is fused to and inseparable from the fibrous pericardium The visceral serous pericardium, also known as the epicardium, covers the myocardium of the heart and can be considered its serosa. (wikipedia.org)
  • The visceral serous pericardium extends to the root of the great vessels and joins the parietal serous pericardium at the anatomical base of the heart. (wikipedia.org)
  • The root of the great vessels and the associated reflections of the serous pericardium creates various smaller sacs and tunnels known as pericardial sinuses, as well as radiographically significant pericardial recesses, where pericardial fluid can pool and mimic mediastinal lymphadenopathy. (wikipedia.org)
  • Together, the parietal and visceral pericardial layers are also called the serous pericardium . (getbodysmart.com)
  • Pericardium consists of two sacs: the outer fibrous pericardium and the inner serous pericardium. (ouhsc.edu)
Diaphragm3
  • The outer layer of the pericardium surrounds the roots of the heart's major blood vessels and is attached by ligaments to the spinal column , diaphragm , and other parts of the body. (daviddarling.info)
  • The diaphragm and pericardium are reconstructed with synthetic mesh material such as Gore-Tex. The mesh is formed to the chest wall with a fold in it to create a loose area at the center to reduce tension along the suture line and the chance of herniation. (bcm.edu)
  • Featured - the coronary arteries, circumflex artery, coronary veins and coronary sinus, segments of the esophagus and trachea, lower portion of the pericardium, diaphragm section, flexible tricuspid valve, pulmonary valve, mitral valve and aortic valve. (denoyer.com)
Bovine pericardium3
  • Bovine pericardium has been used to fabricate conduits for vascular reconstruction. (medscape.com)
  • The objective is to evaluate the functionality of the acellularized bovine pericardium in abdominal wall repairs. (bvsalud.org)
  • Method: Thirty patients underwent repair of abdominal wall defects using acellular bovine pericardium bioprostheses, making a total of 40 anatomically individualized implants. (bvsalud.org)
Inflammation1
  • But if the pericardium is diseased or injured, the resulting inflammation can lead to excess fluid . (moviecultists.com)
Tissue9
  • The fibrous pericardium is the outside layer of the pericardium, made up of dense and loose connective tissue. (wikipedia.org)
