Parts, and Layers
editThe pericardium has two parts, a sac which holds the heart (parietal pericardium), and the lining which reflects back onto the heart (visceral pericardium). The parietal P. has two layers (fibrous and serous), and the visceral P. has only ONE layer, the serous layer. UnderEducatedGeezer (talk) 07:24, 13 October 2022 (UTC)
