Definition that contains right ventricle
- fallot's syndrome a congenital heart defect producing cyanosis; characterized by four symptoms: pulmonary stenosis and ventricular septal defect and malposition of the aorta over both ventricles and hypertrophy of the right ventricle
- pulmonary valve a semilunar valve between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery; prevents blood from flowing from the artery back into the heart
- truncus pulmonalis the artery that carries venous blood from the right ventricle of the heart and divides into the right and left pulmonary arteries
- fallot's tetralogy a congenital heart defect producing cyanosis; characterized by four symptoms: pulmonary stenosis and ventricular septal defect and malposition of the aorta over both ventricles and hypertrophy of the right ventricle
- right atrioventricular valve valve with three cusps; situated between the right atrium and the right ventricle; allows blood to pass from atrium to ventricle and closes to prevent backflow when the ventricle contracts
- ventricular septal defect a common congenital heart defect; an abnormal opening in the septum dividing the ventricles allows blood to pass directly from the left to the right ventricle; large openings may cause congestive heart failure
- pulmonary stenosis abnormal narrowing of the opening into the pulmonary artery from the right ventricle
- tetralogy of fallot a congenital heart defect producing cyanosis; characterized by four symptoms: pulmonary stenosis and ventricular septal defect and malposition of the aorta over both ventricles and hypertrophy of the right ventricle
- cor pulmonale enlargement of the right ventricle of the heart due to disease of the lungs or of the pulmonary blood vessels
- pulmonary trunk the artery that carries venous blood from the right ventricle of the heart and divides into the right and left pulmonary arteries
