Atrioventricular nodal branch

The atrioventricular nodal branch is a coronary artery that supplies arterial blood to the atrioventricular node, which is responsible for initiating muscular contraction of the ventricles. The AV nodal branch is most often a branch of the right coronary artery.

Structure
Origin The atrioventricular nodal branch sees significant variation in origin: • proximal posterolateral branch from the right coronary artery in around 77%. • distal posterolateral branch from the right coronary artery in around 2%. • distal right coronary artery in around 10%. In approximately 2% of people, the vascular supply to the atrioventricular node arises from both the right coronary artery and the left circumflex branch. == Function ==
Function
