Front 1

The upper respiratory tract or upper airway primarily refers to the parts of the respiratory system lying outside of the thorax or above the sternal angle.

Back 1

Nose
nasal cavity
paranasal sinuses
Pharynx
Nasopharynx
Oropharynx
Laryngopharynx

Front 2

Larynx (The larynx can be considered part of the upper respiratory tract,the lower respiratory tract, or both, depending on the source.)

Front 3

The term lower respiratory tract refers to the portions of the

respiratory system from the trachea to the lungs.

Front 4

lower respiratory tract refers to

Back 4

the trachea (wind pipe)
the two bronchial tubes (one to each lung)

Front 7

A Pancoast tumor, also called a

Back 7

pulmonary sulcus tumor or superior sulcus tumor

Front 8

Most Pancoast tumors are

Back 8

non-small cell cancers.

Front 9

A Pancoast tumor

It typically spreads to nearby tissues such as

Back 9

the ribs and vertebrae.

Front 10

A Pancoast tumor

The growing tumor can cause compression of a

Back 10

brachiocephalic vein, subclavian artery, phrenic nerve, recurrent laryngeal nerve, vagus nerve, or, characteristically, compression of a sympathetic ganglion resulting in a range of symptoms known as Horner's syndrome.

Front 12

posterior border of the lung

Back 12

extends inferiorly from the level of the spinous process of CV. 7 to T.V.10 along the scapular line

Front 13

oblique fissure

Back 13

represented by a line that extends from the level of the spinous process of T.V.2 posteriorly to the 6th costal cartilage anteriorly
left lung: upper lobe is superior and anterior to this fissure; lower lobe is inferior and posterior to this fissure

Front 14

horizontal fissure

Back 14

additional fissure in the right lung
represented by a line that extends anteriorly from the oblique fissure across the 4th costal cartilage
right lung: upper lobe is superior to and middle lobe is inferior to this fissure; inferior lobe is posterior to the oblique fissure

reflected as a cuff around the root of the lung and hangs down as a loose fold, called
