. Cunningham's Text-book of anatomy. Anatomy. Left eras of diaphragm ^\_^-—-Intervertebral disc Spinal medulla Fig. 1056. -Teansvebse Section through the Stjpeabenal Gland of a jSew-boe>~ Child IV SITU. below; postero-medially by the diaphragm above, and by the kidney below. Upon the anterior surface, near its lower end, is a well-marked fissure, the hilus. From this emerges a vein which almost immediately joins the left renal vein. The relations of the right and left glands to the kidneys are different. The right lies like a cap upon the superior pole of the right kidney; the left is in contact with the antero-medial border of the left kidney from the hilus to the superior pole. The relation. Fig. 1057.—Recon'steuction of Adrenal of a Dog. From J. Marshall Flint.) The upper part shows the arrangement of blood-vessels upon the surface of the gland, the lower part their arrangement within its substance. of the glands to the peritoneum is not only different but variable. On the right side the peritoneum may cover the lower part of the antero-lateral surface of the gland; or this part may be in contact with the duodenum, in which case a small area about the middle of the surface may be covered by peritoneum ; or the peritoneum may not come into relation with the gland at all. On the left side the upper part of the anterior surface is commonly covered by the peritoneum of the omental bursa, the lower part being 86.
