A

The sensory innervation of the central tendon of the diaphragm is via the phrenic nerve but the periphery of the diaphragm is supplied by the lower six intercostal nerves.

Q

drainage of thoracic duct

A

The thoracic duct drains lymph from most of the body into the venous system at the junction of the left subclavian and jugular veins. The thoracic duct is the larger of the two lymphatic ducts in the body, and is responsible for draining lymph from the following areas:
Lower extremities
Pelvis
Abdomen
Left side of the thorax
Left upper extremity
Left side of the head and neck

103
Q

Origin of thoracic duct

A

The thoracic duct typically starts at the second lumbar vertebra at the cisterna chyli. It contains smooth muscle that propels lymph upward, as well as white blood cells, eosinophils, and a high protein content.

The thoracic duct drains lymph from most of the body into the venous system at the junction of the left subclavian and jugular veins. The thoracic duct is the larger of the two lymphatic ducts in the body, and is responsible for draining lymph from the following areas:
Lower extremities

The thoracic duct typically starts at the second lumbar vertebra at the cisterna chyli. It contains smooth muscle that propels lymph upward, as well as white blood cells, eosinophils, and a high protein content.

A leak in the thoracic duct, known as chylothorax, can cause lymph to collect in the pleural space. This can lead to significant morbidity, including loss of lymph and respiratory distress. A number of conditions can cause a thoracic duct rupture, including trauma, malignancies, tuberculosis, sarcoidosis, and superior vena cava obstruction.
