The chordae tendineae connect the AV valve and the papillary muscle. These structures work together to prevent backflow from the ventricle to the atrium.

What are the small muscle masses attached to the chordae tendineae?
papillary muscles
What papillary muscle surrounds the pericardial sac?
There are papillary muscles IN the ventricles of the heart which keep the tricuspid and the mitral valves (AV valves) closed.
What is the significant name for heart muscle?
cardiac muscle. a type of cardiac muscle is the papillary muscles attach to the lower portion of the interior wall of the ventricles. They connect to the chordae tendineae, which attach to the tricuspid valve in the right ventricle and the mitral valve in the left ventricle. The contraction of the papillary muscles opens these valves. When the papillary muscles relax, the valves close.
