Make : 1. An inci-sion into the right auricle from the anterior vena cava tothe auriculo-ventricular sulcus, and remove and examinethe blood in the right auricle. 2. Make an incision along the right border of the rightventricle (or of the heart), beginning just below the au- riculo-ventricular sulcus and continuing to the apex ofthe right ventricle. The auriculo-ventricular sulcus istherefore left intact between the two incisions. Removeand examine the blood in the ventricle. 3. Make an incision in the left auricle, beginning be-tween the pulmonary veins and continuing to the auric-ulo-ventricular sulcus. Remove and examine the bloodin the left auricle. 4. Make an incision along the left border of the heart,beginning below the left auriculo-ventricular sulcus and. Fig. 4584.— a. Heart; b, lung: c, diaphragm;rf, liver; e. stomach ; /, spleen.

Insert the thumb and fingers into the incisions soas to grasp the heart firmly by the septum near the apex,and by broad sweeps of the knife cut the veins, arteries,etc., so as to remove the the chest, dividingthe vessels at a good distance from the heart. 6.
