Q

Fill the 2 lymphatic drainage locations -> ducts in body

Where do each duct drain?

A

(see pic of guy)

  • right side of H&N + right upper limb –> right lymphatic duct
  • everywhere else of body –> left lymphatic duct (aka. thoracic duct)

Q

Where does phrenic and vagus nerve arise from?

A

phrenic (C2-5 spinal seg)
vagus (CNX)

17
Q

What fibres does phrenic and vagus nerve contain?

A

phrenic:
- somatosensory + somatomotor
- (lesser sympathetic fibres)
(note: phrenic is mainly a somatic nerve)

vagus:
- psymp fibres
(note: vagus is mainly a psymp, ANS nerve)

18
Q

What does phrenic and vagus nerve innervate?

A

phrenic:
somatosensory and somatic-motor to:
- diaphragm (separate phrenic nerve for left n right dome) (think: hemiparalysis of diaphragm)

somatic-sensory to:
- mediastinal ad diaphragmatic pleura of lungs
- fibrous and parietal layer of visceral pericardium of heart
- peritoneum (another serous mem?)

vagus:
- heart (note: psymp fibres in vagus innervates SA and AV node!)
- lungs
- GI tract

19
Q

Recurrent laryngeal nerves arise from?

Both supply?

A

Vagus nerve

RLNs supply larynx/ laryngeal region

20
Q

LRLN hooks under?

A

Ligamentum arteriosum (a fibrous band from left PA to arch of aorta)

21
Q

Is RRLN part of mediastinum, why?

A

No its above first rib on right side of body

22
Q

Which part of heart lies anterior to esophagus (fish bone!)

A

LA

23
Q

Imp relations of esophagus?

A

Ant: trachea, L bronchus (aft bifurct), LA

Post: Thoracic duct, Azygos vein, Thoracic vertebrae

LHS: aortic arch

24
Q

Where are the 3 constrictions of esophagus?

A
  • jxn between pharynx and esophagus
  • where aortic arch crosses it on left
  • where it herniates diaphragm at level T10 (recall: I EV ATA triangle)
25
Q

At which levels are the 3 diaphragmatic openings and what structures pierce diaphram at each level?

(Hint: triangle)

A

I
EV
ATA

+
see vv good pic on anat notes

26
Q

Outline conduction system of heart and where they are located?

A

SA node (near opening of SVC into RA)
AV node - above coronary sinus
Bundle of His - (in interventricular septum?)
Right bundle branch - runs through moderator band in RV
Left bundle branch
Purkinje fibres

27
Q

Read cardiac outline on CXR.

A

(see radiology notes in M1 CA2 cheatsheet for ans)

28
Q

Explain in one sentence how CABG works

A

A segment of long sahenous vein is connected to ascending aorta and then distal to the coronary artery stenosis.

29
Q

Outline the 2 circulation systems in body (pulmonary + systemic). (focus on how they flow through heart and great vessels)

A

(can watch vid)

30
Q

What determines coronary dominance?

A

Which (RCA/LCA or their branches) supply PDA.

31
Q

(For coronary arteries and veins, do all AR qns on notes)!!
