Location:
defined by the following structures within the right atrium: (1) The ostium of the coronary sinus, posteriorly; (2) the anterior-septal leaflet commissure; and (3) the tendon of Todaro (a tendinous structure connecting the valve of the inferior vena cava ostium to the central fibrous body), posteriorly.

Importance in cardiovascular diseases:
used as an anatomical landmark for location of the atrioventricular node during electrophysiology procedures such as pacing or ablation.

Localización:
está limitado por las siguientes estructuras dentro de la aurícula derecha: (1) el ostium del seno coronario (2) la comisura antero-septal de la válvula tricuspídea; y (3) el tendón de Todaro (estructura tendinosa que conecta la válvula de la vena cava inferior con el cuerpo fibroso central).

Importancia en las enfermedades cardiovasculares:
se utiliza como punto de referencia anatómico para la ubicación del nodo auriculoventricular durante procedimientos de electrofisiología como estimulación o ablación.
