This 3D-printed anatomical specimen illustrates the topography of the heart following removal of the left lung during a left-sided dissection of the thoracic cavity and cranial abdomen in an adult dog, providing an exceptional teaching model for advanced anatomical study.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe cranial and accessory lobes of the right lung remain in situ, serving as important anatomical reference points for orientation within the thoracic cavity. The specimen clearly demonstrates the spatial relationships between the heart, great vessels, diaphragm, and upper abdominal structures.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWithin the cranial mediastinum, the brachiocephalic trunk and left subclavian artery are visible as major branches arising from the aortic arch, providing key insight into the arterial supply of the thorax and forelimb.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe thoracic oesophagus is visible traversing the mediastinum in a craniocaudal direction, allowing clear identification of its anatomical course through the thoracic cavity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe preserved diaphragm serves as an important anatomical landmark for retrodiaphragmatic organs such as the liver and stomach. The diaphragmatic crura and their relationship to the aortic hiatus are maintained, along with the initial visceral branches of the abdominal aorta, including:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCeliac trunk\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCranial mesenteric artery\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eCardiac structures are also clearly displayed, including the interventricular and coronary grooves.
