“Heart Valves (Cardiac Valves)”  

Cardiac Valves (Heart Valves)

  In our body's heart, the Heart Valves (Cardiac Valves) are internal flaps of tissue that prevent regurgitation of blood from the heart ventricles to the heart atria or from the pulmonary arteries or aorta to the ventricles.

Atrioventricular Valves and Semilunar Valves

  In our body's heart, there are four (4) different Cardiac Valves (Heart Valves) to keep the blood flowing in the correct direction two atrioventricular valve (cuspid valve) types and two semilunar valve types.
  Examples of subsets, concepts, subjects and related entities of cardiac valves include:

atrioventricular valves mitral valve (bicuspid valve) tricuspid valve Pulmonary valve Truncal valve

Aortic valve Variant cardiac valve Vestigial cardiac valve Valve of coronary sinus Valve of inferior vena cava Cardiac valve of Vieussens
