Study Notes
Muscles of Respiration
- Muscles responsible for moving the rib superiorly during inspiration include the external intercostal muscles and the diaphragm.
- Muscles responsible for moving the rib inferiorly during expiration are primarily the internal intercostal muscles.
- The diaphragm is the primary muscle of inspiration, playing a crucial role in the breathing process.
Nerve Supply of the Diaphragm
- The diaphragm is innervated by the phrenic nerve, which originates from the cervical spinal nerves C3, C4, and C5.
Foramina in the Diaphragm
- The diaphragm contains three main foramina: the aortic hiatus, esophageal hiatus, and inferior vena cava foramen.
Diaphragm Attachment and Action
- The diaphragm attaches to the lower ribs (ribs 6-12), lumbar vertebrae, and the xiphoid process.
- Its action during inspiration is to contract and flatten, increasing thoracic volume and facilitating airflow into the lungs.
Nerve Supply to Intercostal Muscles
- External intercostal muscles are supplied by the intercostal nerves (T1-T11).
- Internal intercostal muscles receive nerve supply also from the intercostal nerves.
- Innermost intercostal muscles share their nerve supply with the internal intercostals through the intercostal nerves.
Blood Supply to the Breast
- The breast is primarily supplied by the internal mammary artery, lateral thoracic artery, and thoracoacromial artery.
- Venous drainage of the breast is via the axillary vein and internal thoracic vein.
- The breast is innervated by the intercostal nerves (T2-T6).
Lymphatic Drainage of the Breast
- Approximately 75% of lymphatic drainage of the breast goes to the axillary lymph nodes.
Blood Supply and Drainage of the Thoracic Wall
- The thoracic wall is mainly supplied by the intercostal arteries, which are branches of the thoracic aorta and internal thoracic artery.
- On the right side, the thoracic wall drains primarily through the right superior intercostal vein and the azygos vein.
- Intercostal muscles, skin of the chest wall, and parietal pleura are mainly supplied by the intercostal nerves (T1-T11).
Blood Supply and Drainage of the Abdominal Wall
- The internal thoracic artery continues as the superior epigastric artery and supplies the superior part of the anterolateral abdominal wall.
- The inferior epigastric artery, a branch of the external iliac artery, also supplies the abdominal wall.
- The superior epigastric vein runs parallel to the superior epigastric artery, draining the anterolateral abdominal wall.
Venous Drainage
- Posterior intercostal veins on the left side drain into the left superior intercostal vein and then into the left brachiocephalic vein.
Summary of Blood Supply and Nerve Innervation
- Key arteries providing blood supply to both the breast and thoracic wall include the internal thoracic artery and its branches.
- Intercostal nerves are the primary source for supplying the intercostal muscles and adjacent structures.
