Abstract:
Left ventricular diverticulum is an extremely rare anomaly, especially in the absence of other findings, and as such it has been rarely imaged, rarely seen intraoperatively, and has no standardized management algorithm. We report our suggested imaging and management in the context of previous management philosophies.

Chambers of the Heart
10.0K
The human heart is a complex organ made up of four chambers: the right and left atria and the right and left ventricles. These internal chambers are separated by partitions known as the interatrial and interventricular septa. The exterior of the heart features a groove known as the coronary sulcus that demarcates the atria from the ventricles, while the anterior and posterior interventricular sulci distinguish between the two ventricles.

Development of the Heart
3.9K
The development of the human heart, a crucial organ, commences from the mesoderm on the 18th or 19th day after fertilization. This process initiates in the cardiogenic area, a group of mesodermal cells at the embryo's head end, which evolves into elongated strands known as cardiogenic cords. These cords undergo a transformation to form hollow-centered endocardial tubes.
