The endocardium is a thin, smooth membrane which lines and gives the glistening appearance to the inner surface of the heart; it assists in forming the valves by its reduplications, and is continuous with the lining membrane of the large bloodvessels.

The inner surface of the heart is lined by a serous membrane, the endocardium, which is smooth and firmly adherent to the muscular structure of the heart.

Secondly, metastases from the lung to the heart are usually the result of direct extension and almost always involve the outer pericardium, not the endocardium.

This attacks the lining membrane, or endocardium, and causes, not infrequently, a shrinkage of the heart valves.

All the cavities of the heart are lined with a smooth, delicate membrane, called the _endocardium_.

It is covered by the visceral layer of the serous pericardium (epicardium), and lined by the endocardium.
