Purkinje Fibers in Canine False Tendons: New Anatomical and Electrophysiological Findings

Figure 1

The distribution of Purkinje fibers in the left ventricular endocardium. (a, d) There was no Purkinje fiber branch found within 0.5 cm below the mitral valve; (b, e) showed there was no Purkinje fiber branch found within 0.8 cm below the aortic valve; (c, f) there was no Purkinje fiber branch found on the tip of the papillary muscles. MVL, mitral valve leaflet; LCC, left coronary cusp; RCC, right coronary cusp.
