Upper Subscapularis 2. Thoracodorsal 3. Axillary 4. Radial 5. Lower Subscapularis Name the correct artery. • The right recurrent laryngeal nerve passes around it. - Right brachiocephalic artery Name the correct artery. • The left recurrent laryngeal nerve passes around it. - Arch of the aorta The inferior mesenteric artery drains into it. - The splenic vein Are the quadrate and caudate lobes of the liver functionally part of the left or right lobe? - Functionally they are part of the left lobe of the liver because they receive their blood supply from the left hepatic artery. Anatomically they are considered part of the right lobe of the liver. What bones make up the acetabulum? - Pubis, ilium, and ischium What is the anatomic positioning of the right and left gastric nerve plexus of the esophagus as they pass through the diaphragm? - LARP: Left goes Anterior and Right goes Posterior (because of the rotation of the gut; remember your embryology!)
