It has taken centuries to piece together the gross anatomy of the heart. From Hippocrates to Galen to Leonardo da Vinci, great anatomists, philosophers, and even artists have all contributed to unravelling the mystery that was once the heart's structure. Ancient minds fought against religious and cultural constraints to provide us with the foundation for our sciences, particularly medicine.Despite advances in understanding the anatomy of the heart, recent anatomists have made new discoveries. This manuscript examines the evolution of cardiac anatomy from its inception to its current state of refinement.
