01
Overview
Cardiac septal tissue refers to the specialized wall of tissue that separates the left and right sides of the heart. This structure is essential for proper cardiac function, ensuring that oxygenated and deoxygenated blood remain separated as they circulate through the body. The cardiac septum consists of two main components: the atrial septum (separates the left and right atria) and the ventricular septum (separates the left and right ventricles). It is composed primarily of cardiac muscle fibers with connective tissue elements. Abnormalities, such as septal defects, can lead to significant health problems.
