Aus Dornheim Anatomy
There are two types of valves in the heart: atrioventricular valves and vascular valves. The four heart valves serve to allow blood to flow in the heart in only one direction and thus prevent backflow of blood. The leaflet valves are located between the atria and the ventricles. The pocket valves are located between the pulmonary trunk and the aorta.
