EXPOSURE OF THIRD PORTION OF SUBCLAVIAN ARTERY,167 LIGATION OF ARTERIES OF HEAD AXD KECK. 169 portion of the artery is also covered by the prevertebral fascia or posteriorprocess of the deep cervical fascia, and is crossed by the nerve to the subclaviusmuscle. The supra-scapular arter}^ and vein cross this portion of the arteryfrom within outward, and usually lie near tlie level of the upper border of theclavicle. In this respect the supra-scapular artery bears the same relation to thesubclavian artery at the point of election as the middle sterno-mastoid arterydoes to the common carotid artery at its point of election. Behind this part ofthe artery are the middle scalene muscle, the first rib, and the lower cervicaltrunk of the brachial plexus, which is formed by the eighth cervical and the firstthoracic nerve. Above it are the upper and middle trunks of
