The necessity for precise and descriptive cardiac anatomy has become most imperative in view of advances in heart surgery. Until recently, emphasis has been directed toward the study of intra-cardiac anatomy only by select theoretical anatomists with no direct practical application to functional medicine; however, with the advent of the heart-lung machines, improved techniques for extra-corporeal circulation and hypothermia, more and more cardiac surgical techniques are being developed and perfected. The potentialities for an increased number of intra-cardiac surgical procedures naturally follows the perfection of the mechanical devises making such surgery possible.
