The anatomy and diseases of the breast .. . hird ribs; then descend over the third ribto the intercostal muscles between the third andthe fourth ribs. They then ascend to the se-cond rib ; and pass upon the inner side of the axil-lary vein; continuing over the intercostal musclesbelow the first rib, they form a trunk which pro-ceeds under the clavicle, through the absorbentaperture, into the junction of the right jugular andsubclavian veins. e, The axillary artery, with the axillary vein, upon itsinner side. g, g, The axillary plexus of nerves. Fig. 2, Absorbents of the nipple and of the breast. Beginningat the root of the nipple, four of them being here in-jected, they pass over the surface of the breast to-wards the axilla, and there enter an absorbent gland,after which they pass as in fig. 1. Fig. 3. The internal absorbents of the gland injected from va-rious parts of the breast, and terminating in twoabsorbents in the axilla. The lactiferous tubes arealso partially injected, and may be seen under theabsorbent vessels. t. Xj. A^
