TOPOGRAPHICAL AND RELATIONAL ANATOMY. 23 THE TRACHEA AND BRONCHI. The trachea passes almost vertically down throughthe middle of the suprasternal region, deflected slightlyto the right in the upper sternal region by the arch ofthe aorta, where it is found dividing into right andleft primary bronchi opposite the junction of the firstand second pieces of the sternum. (Fig. 3.) This levelis indicated on the surface by a palpable transverseridge on the sternum opposite the second costal cartilage. Fig. Diagram showing the relation of the trachea and bronchi to the anterior chest wall. From here the right bronchus continues downward andto the right, conforming very nearly to the direction ofthe trachea just above it, passes behind the extremeinner end of the second intercostal space and the junc-tion of the third costal cartilage with the the upper border of the third costal cartilageit gives off its first branch, which passes outward andupward to the upper lobe toward the right apex. 24 ANATOMICAL. The right primary bronchus is slightly larger incalibre than the left, and its first or hyparterial branchis given off only half an inch from the tracheal bifurca-tion and before the bronchus is surrounded by lungtissue. The bronchus continues downward and outwardinto the lung substance, to break up into its variousbranches deep in the mammary region. Post
