Coronary Circulation

Blood enters the coronary circulation via the coronary ostia. Two coronary ostia arise off the aorta, the right coronary artery and the left coronary artery.

Right coronary artery supplies:

  • Right atrium
  • Right ventricle
  • Part of the inferior and posterior surfaces of the left ventricle
  • In 50% of population the SA node
  • Bundle of His and AV node
