The interventricular septum is a part of the anatomy
of the heart and seperates the left
ventrical from the right
ventrical.
This septum between the two ventricles is thickest at the lowest part
of its structure. The upper part of the interventricular septum is called
the membranous part of the septum. As it raises upwards within the heart
it tapers off to becomes a mass of muscular fibres consisting of fibrous
tissue covered by two layers of endocardium.
(In exactly the same way, the interatrial
septum seperates the
left
atrium from the right
atrium - within the structure of the heart.) |
