Q

What is a coronary angioplasty?

A

Q

What are the three types of branches that come off of the descending thoracic aorta?

A
  1. Unpaired visceral branches –> go to an organ, but unpaired
  2. Paired lateral visceral branches- go to pairs to a organ
  3. Paired segmental parietal branches (posterior intercostal A)- all correstpond to a single vertebrae.
22
Q

Unpaired visceral branches of the thoracic (descending aorta)

A
  1. Mediastinal A.
  2. Esophageal A.
  3. Pericardial A
23
Q

Paired lateral visceral branches of the thoracic (descending) aorta

A

Left and right bronchial A–> supply the bronchi.

24
Q

Paired segmental parietal branches of the of the thoracic aorta

A
  1. Posterior intercostal A.
  2. Subcostal A. (goes into the abdomen below the 12th rib with the subcostal N)
25
Q

Posterior intercostal arteries

A

PIA- paired segmental parietal branch.

It makes several branches

  1. Dorsal branch
  2. Collateral branches which can be damaged in thoracentesis
  3. Lateral cutaneous branch- third and final contributer to the mammary gland
26
Q

What is the third and final contributer to the mammary gland ?

A

Lateral cutaneous branch of the posterior intercostal A.

contributes to the lateral mammary branch (as well as the lateral thoracic a.)

27
Q

Medial mammary branch comes from _____

A

internal thoracic A.

28
Q

Lateral mammary branch comes from ____

A
  1. Lateral thoracic A.
  2. Lateral cutaneous branch of the posterior intercostal A
29
Q

CN: CABG

What is it and what is used in a CABG?

A

CABG is a procedure that is used to bypass a blocked section of a coronary artery and delivery O2 to the heart.

One end of the BV will be attached to the aorta and another part is attached to the coronary artery at the point BELOW the blockage.

-SOMETIMES THE GREAT SAPHENOUS VEIN IS USED or the INTERNAL THORACIC A.

30
Q

What are the phrenic arteries?

A
  1. Musculophrenic artery- comes off of the internal thoracic A.
  2. Pericardiacophrenic A- from the internal thoracic A
  3. Superior phrenic A- from the descending aorta (located below the diaphragm)
31
Q

What comes off the pulmonary trunk?

A

R pulmonary A

  1. Superior lobar A–> supplies the superior lobe of the lung
  2. Middle lobar A–> middle lobe
  3. Inferior lobar A–> inferior lobe of the

L pulmonary A

  1. Superior lobar A- to superior lobe
  2. Inferior lobar A- to inferior lobe
32
Q

CN: pulmonary embolism

A

When the pulmonary A is blocked (often in the lobar or segmental branch) due to an embolism, such as a blood cot, fat, air bubble.

The embolus usually passes from a vein–> right side of the heart–> pulmonary artery.

It stops deoxygenated blood from getting oxygenated

33
Q

Pulmonary veins

A

Empty into the L atrium.

There are 4 of them.

  1. Right superior/inferior pulmonary vein
  2. Left superior/inferior pulmonary vein
34
Q

A

Drains the GREAT, MIDDLE and SMALL CARDIAC VEINS

and empties into the right atrium

A

DIRECTLY INTO

the Right atrium

36
Q

Where does the small cardiac vein drain into?

A

Coronary sinus

37
Q

Where does the coronary sinus lay? and what does it drain into?

A

Left atrioventriventricular groove.

Drains into the right atrium

38
Q

Where does the small cardiac vein run?

A

Inferior border of the heart (right margin) and travels with the R marginal A.

39
Q

What is the largest diameter vein on the heart?

A

Middle cardiac vein

40
Q

What does the great cardiac vein run with?

A
  1. Anterior interventricular artery
  2. Circumflex artery ( on the posterior surface)
41
Q

What is the role of the azygous vein complex?

A

It drains the posterior intercostal veins.

42
Q

What is the role of the azygous vein?

A
  1. Drains the right posterior intercostal veins DIRECTLY.
  2. Receives blood from the hemiazygous vein and the accessory hemiazygous vein, which drain the LEFT POSTERIOR INTERCOSTAL VEINS.

–> SVC

43
Q

Thoracic duct

A

-originates as the chyle cistern in the abdomen and drains lymph from the LE, pelvis, abdomen, left half of the thorax, Left UE, left side of the head and neck superiorly and emptiies into the venous system near –> L internal jugular vein and L subclavian vein

in the thorax, it drains the [L subclavian lymphatic trunk] and [L broncomediastinal trunk]

44
Q

Thymus

A

A lymphoid organ located on the superior mediastinum and is replaced by fat after puberty.

45
Q

Subclavian trunk

What does it drain?

A

UE

Axilla

via the axillary lymphatic plexus

46
Q

Jugular trunk

What does it drain?

A

1. Cranial LN

2. Cervical LN

47
Q

Bronchomediastinal trunk

A

drains

1. Parasternal,

2. Paratracheal,

3. Paraesophageal,

4. Superior Phrenic

5. Brachiocephalic Lymph Nodes

48
Q

Right lymphatic duct

What does it drain?

A

1. R subclavian trunk

2. R jugular trunk

3. R bronchomediastinal trunk

49
Q

Thoracic LN on the right side

A

Drain lymph from the R lymphatic duct–> venous circulation

50
Q

Thoracic LN on the L side

A

drrain lymph from the thoracic duct–> venous circulation
