Atrio-Hisian fibers

Atrio-Hisian fibers

  • Atrio-Hisian fibers – Brechenmacher fibers

  • Bundle of Kent – accessory conducting pathway between the atria and the ventricle of the heart.
  • Mahaim fibers- connecting fibers originating from the atrioventricular node (AV node), bundle of His, or left bundle branch that join the ventricular myocardium.
  • James fibers – originate in the low atrium and terminate in the low AV node.
  • Brechenmacher fibers – accessory pathway taking the form of atrio-Hisian fibers.
