Q

Left sympathetic chain features

A

further posterior and lateral than the R sympathetic chain because we have a large blood vessel (the aorta) that sits on the L side of the vertebral bodies, and during development that pushes the L spinal ganglia more lateral and posterior compared to the R side of the spine.
