Human cardiac surface anatomy. Heart of a "fresh frozen" donor. I tried to be very accurate in the dissection to preserve the correct anatomy. A whole day was spent preparing the specimen and photographing in high resolution. Inside anatomy is also available.

A 71 year old man experienced a 40 lb weight loss and was found to be anemic with a hemoglobin of 10.6. PSA was normal. EGD showed gastritis, colonoscopy was normal. He developed back pain and a CT showed a T3 vertebral lesion with extraosseous extension. Initial pathology from the corpectomy showed sarcomatoid carcinoma. Genomic studies showed mutations and was microsatellite stable. Radiation was given to the adrenal lesion and he now presents with progression in those lesions and enlarging intraabdominal lymphadenopathy.
