The thoracic cavity is the more superior subdivision of the anterior cavity, and it is enclosed by the rib cage. The thoracic cavity contains the lungs and the heart, which is located in the mediastinum.The diaphragm forms the floor of the thoracic cavity and separates it from the more inferior abdominopelvic cavity. The superior mediastinum is a wedge-shaped cavity located between the superior regions of the two thoracic cavities. 2  The pericardial cavity within the mediastinum is located at the center of the chest below the superior mediastinum.
The heart is constructed of a special kind of muscle called the myocardium or cardiac muscle, and is enclosed in a double-layered, membranous sac known as the pericardium. A wall of muscle, the septum, divides the heart into two cavities.The left cavity pumps blood throughout the body, while the right cavity pumps blood only through the lungs. Each cavity is in turn divided into two chambers, the upper ones called atria, the lower ones ventricles.Venous blood from the body, containing large amounts of carbon dioxide, returns to the right atrium.he left cavity pumps blood throughout the body, while the right cavity pumps blood only through the lungs.
