Anatomy Comprise Superior and Inferior Mediastinal Nodes. Superior drain from upper chest and neck next to esophagus and trachea, down to root/hilum lung. Inferior drain from level of hilum to lower lobes lungs. Superficial chest structures (skin, breast, shoulder muscles) drain to Axillary Nodes. Deep thorax structures drain to Mediastinal and Bronchopulmonary Nodes. Interested in

Anatomy Course Arises anterior to the axillary artery from the medial and lateral cords of the brachial plexus. It passes through the arm in the anterior compartment on the medial side between the biceps brachii and the brachialis muscle. It then crosses over the medial epicondyle of the humerus. It then enters the forearm from
