1- Spinal anesthesia at high level may
lead to temporary drop of blood
pressure.

26. A- From Chest Wall
1- Superficial lymph vessels:
- From front of chest to pectoral
lymph nodes, parasternal or lower
deep cervical lymph nodes.
- From back of chest to subscapular
nodes. Dr.Sherif Fahmy
27. 2- Deep lymph vessels:
A- From anterior chest wall to
parasternal nodes.
B- Posterior part of chest wall to
intercostal lymph nodes (opposite
neck of ribs).
C- Four diaphragmatic nodes
(anterior, posterior and 2 lateral)
which drain diaphragm and liver.

28. B- from Thoracic
Contents
1- Anterior mediastinal nodes.
2- Posterior mediastinal nodes.
3- Nodes of lungs, bronchi and
trachea.

29. •Lymph vessels from:
-Anterior mediastinal nodes.
-Tracheal lymph nodes.
-Parasternal lymph nodes.
Will unit together to form broncho-
medistinal lymph vessels which joins
thoracic duct on left side and right
lymphatic duct in right side.
