The sinus node is also called the nodus sinuatrialis or Keith-Flack node. Macroscopically, it consists of a muscular structure that is about 3 mm thick and 10 mm long. The external shape resembles a comma. It is located on the dorsal side of the right heart, subepicardially in the terminal sulcus. Cranial to the sinus node is the junction of the superior vena cava. In some cases, the sinus node extends into the right heart ear.
