| Why do C3, 4 and 5 supply the diaphragm? | The diaphragm develops in the neck in week 4 of development and as the dorsal embryo body grows the diaphragm seems to decend. |
| What is congenital diaphragmatic hernia? | absent pleuroperitoneal fold causes intestine and other viscera to pass into the thorax. Common on the left. Abdomen flat when lying down. underdeveloped lungs |
| What is retrosternal/parasternal hernia? | hiatus located between sternal & costal parts of the diaphragm. Herniation of intestine into percardial sac |
| What is congenital hiatal hernia? | Esophageal hiatus may be abnormally large. |
| What is eventration of diaphragm? | caused by a defective musculature in one half of the diaphragm. That half goes up with contraciton of diaphragm during respiration. |
| Describe Thoracic outlet syndrome | .:Pain in 4th and 5th finger due to pressure on lower brachial plexus (C8,T1) due to cervical rib. Also ischemic muscle pain in the upper limb (increasing pulse when limb raised) |
| What innervates the external intercostal muscles? | intercostal nerves (T1-T11) |

| Function of Transversus thoracis? | Depress costal cartilages |
| What is increased during "pump handle" respiration? | increases A-P dimension |
| What increases during "bucket handle"? | 'increases lateral dimension |

| What is the path of the bottom 9 posterial IAs? | thoracic aorta - posterior intercostal |
| Describe the path of the internal thoracic artery. | subclavian, anterior over cervical dome of pleura, vertically through superior thoracic aperature, along internal surface of thorax. At 6th rib divides into superior epigastric and musclophrenic |
