Blackcloud Body Wall and Thorax p.1-18 Flashcards
most superficial thoracic wall muscle
external intercostal m.
deeper thoracic wall muscles, fiber perpedicular to external intercostal
internal thoracic muscles
internal to intercostal, attached t osternum and inner surface of ribs
tranversus thoracis
intercostal vessels from superior to inferior
intercostal vein, artery, nerve
anterior intercostal arteries are ____ than posterior intercostal arteries
much smaller
posterior intercostal arteries arise from
descending aorta (most superior, from branches of the subclavian)
posterior intercostal arteries anastomose with
anterior intercostals, duh
intercostal nerves are (come from)
ventral rami of spinal nerves 1 t o11
First 6 instercostal nerves run
within an intercostal space
intercostal ribs 7-11
being intercostally, run along anterior abdominal body wall
branches of internal thoracic artery
musculophrenic and superior epigastric arteries
fluid, blood or pus can safely be removed from
costodiaphragmatic recess
where to insert needle to reach costodiaphragmatic space
near middle of 9th intercostal space
blood supply and innervation of visceral layer is same as
the organ
blood supply and innervation of parietal layer is same as
adjacent body wall
parietal pericardium is innervated by
phrenic nerve
parietal pericardium receives blood from which two branches of the internal thoracic artery, and what else?
pericardiophrenic artery, musculophrenic artery, descending thoracic aorta
parietal pleura is innervated by
phrenic nerve & intercostal nerves
parietal pleura receives blood from
intercostal arteries
parietal pericardium cannot be separated from
the diaphragm
visceral pericardium cannot be separated from
the heart
the place between the two pleural cavities is called
the mediastinum
mediastinum superior border
superior thoracic aperture, an imaginary line from T1 to superior borer of manubrium
mediastinum inferior border
diaphragm
