In btw the first rib & the ant surf of scapula, it’s the

|
triangle where pulse can b taken

The carotid triang
|
|
Carotid line: begins behind sternoclavicular joint and from here we aim to btw mastoid process and angle of the mandible. At Cv4 common carotid bifurcates and carotid line follows
|
external carotid a
|
|
Superior border of thryoid cartilage delineates
|
the branching point of the common carotid
|
|
External jugular vein lies in subcutaneous tissue so is superficial to investing fascia and it forms deep to the parotid gland by
|
posterior auricular vein and the retromandibular vein (superficial temporal and maxillary vein
|
|
Deep cervical nodes are next to the
|
carotid sheath
|
|
Jugulodigastric node at
|
crossing of the posteior belly of the digastric to IJV. This node that get swollen when infection, strep throat etc
|
|
Where the superior belly of the omohyoid crosses the IJV theres the
|
jugulo-omohyoid node
|
|
Accesory nerve passes through the posterior triang. Along this acc nerve theres an accesory chain of nodes and connect to the deep cervical nodes and to transeverse cervical nodes. In surgery in the posterior triang when theres cancer is neccesary to remove this nodes so it is important to
|
to preserve the acc nerve
