Block 8 Non-Clinicals Flashcards
(88 cards)
diaphragmatic innervation
phrenicc nerve (C3,4,5) intercostal nerves (T6-T12)
heads of diaphragm
sternal
costal
lumbar (vertebral)
sternocostal triangles
anterolateral gaps btwn sternal and costal heads
superior epigastric vessels traverse here
cardiophrenic space
above sternocostal triangles
borders: ant wall, pericardium, mediastinal pleura
retrocrural space
border: crura, AA, lumbar spine
contain: azygous + hemiazygous vs, thoracic duct, lymph nodes, fat
lumbocostal triangle
gap btwn L costal head and L lumbar head (smaller i=on R)
@ posterior sulcus
lumbar head origins
- medial arcuate ligament: attach to body of L2 and TP of L1, arch over psoas major
- lateral arcuate ligament: attachesto TP of L1 and mid rib 12, arches of quadratus lumborum
esophageal hiatus
@ T10
made from sling of R crus
contain: esophagus, ant/post vagal trunk (L/R vagal nerve), esophageal branches of L gastric a/v and L phrenic a/v
R crus (+ innervation)
inf: L3 to central tendon
contribute to ligament of Trietz
pinchcock atcion assist in LES fxn (contract @ insp, relax @ exp)
innervate: R phrenic nerve
L crus
inf: L2 to central tendon
aortic hiatus
@ T12
made by crura and median arcuate ligamnet
contain: AA, thoracic duct (custerna chyli below or straddling hiatus)
median vs medial vs lateral arcuate ligament
median: aortic hiatus, celiac trunk
medial: lumbar head, symp trunk
lateral: lumbar head, subcostal n,
caval opening
aka venal caval hiatus
@ T8
contain: IVC, R phrenic nerve
sympathetic trunk
course pot to medial arc lig
covered by IVC on R
4 lumbar ganglia, 4-5 sacral
L and R symp trunks fuse inf –> ganglion impar
azygous/hemi
pierce crura close to greater splanchnic or thru aortic hiatus
anastamose w/ ascending lumbar veins
course through retrocrural space
subcostal nerves/vessels
emerge from behind lateral arcuate ligament
AA branch levels
celiac trunk @ T12 (same as aortic hiatus)
SMA @ L1
IMA @ L3
split into common iliac @ L4
unpaired branches of aorta
celiac
SMA
IMA
median sacral artery (somatic)
paired branches of aorta
middle adrenal/suprarenal as renal as (R more slanted - kidney lower) gonadal as inf phrenic a (somatic) lumbar a (somatic)
adrenal gland blood supply
suprarenal a
renal a
inferior phrenic a
lumbar a and v length
a longer on R
v longer on L
median sacral a
comes off aorta @ bifurcation
supplies ant sacrum
gives off lumbar a pair #5
rectum blood supply

mid rectal a
inf rectal a
median sacral a
branches of IVC
L/R renal vs
R adrenal v
1-4 lumbar vs
split @ L5 to make common iliac vs (post as)
