This organ is affected by Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. In crocodilians, the foramen of Panizza joins two of its parts, and in infants, it features a foramen ovale that later closes. Its papillary muscles tighten the chordae tendineae, and two of its structures are sometimes called auricles. The QRS complex results from the action of this organ's bundle of His, Purkinje fibers, and SA node.
