Description.âThis, the dorsal or " posterior " aspect of the heart, is less famil- iar to most persons and less frequently represented. It is, however, much more compre- hensive and instructive than the ventral aspect, and is given in the following works : Quain, A, II, Fig. 166; Smith, E. N., A, PI. 55 ; McAl- pine, B, PI. XXIII, Fig. 3 (rabbit); Gegenbaur (Lankester), A, Fig. 336 (pig). The present figure fairly represents the size of a somewhat large heart, and its form when injected. As stated, however, in § 839, it is probable that the less thickness of the lateral wall of the right ventricle has permitted it to yield to the force of the injection so that the right side is unduly convex. The word ventriculi is written across the apex of the ventricular portion, and the abbre- viation V. crd. is just below the furrow between â that and the auricular portion. For the sake of showing certain parts more distinctly, the figure represents the organ as if rotated slightly upon its longer axis so as to ex- pose more of the right than of the left side. The line of demarcation between the right and left auricles {Aur. dxt., Aur. sin.) coincides nearly with a line connecting the V. of V. crd. vrith the left borderof the prcRcaxsa. The ductus arteriosus (§ 867) is not shown. § 836. General Description of the Heart.â The heart is a hollow, quadrilocular (four cham- bered) muscular o
