Key result

The specialized atrioventricular junction consists of atrial transitional cells, a compact node, the penetrating bundle, and ventricular conduction pathways, consistent with Tawara's original account.

Atrioventricular junctional area anatomy

This review emphasizes the historical and ongoing importance of Sunao Tawara's original anatomical descriptions of the atrioventricular conduction system.

Cite This Study

Anderson et al. (2002) conducted a review in Atrioventricular junctional area anatomy. The specialized atrioventricular junction consists of atrial transitional cells, a compact node, the penetrating bundle, and ventricular conduction pathways, consistent with Tawara's original account.
