A exceptionally fine male écorché model
displaying the superficile muscles and arteries and veins, and in more detail the thorax and abdomen opened up. 1. The larynx. 2. The thyroid gland. 3. The heart. 4. The lungs; the frontal part has been removed. 5. The trachea and 6. its branches going into the lungs; through these the blood is supplied with fresh air and nitrogen is expired. From the heart a thick red tube, the aorta (7) rises up and supplies three branches to the head and arms. The descending aorta branches out into the entrails and the legs. This red blood carries nutrients to all parts of the body. The blue veins then carry the blood back to the heart, through their main branches, the superior vena cava (8) and the inferior vena cava (9). The contractions of the heart drive the deoxygenated blood through the tube (10) into the lungs, where it is cleansed through inspiration and expiration, and becomes red again. From the lungs, it is transported, through four blood vessels (11) back into the left chambers of the heart and from there back to the aorta and to all parts of the body. The abdominal cavity contains the kidneys (12), one of which is dissected. These filter the urine out of the blood and transport it through the urinary ducts (13) to the bladder (14). Behind it, the rectum (19) can be seen. Finally, it should be noted that the blood vessels are identical on both sides of the body.
