Thorax Mcqs

The cell body of the preganglionic sympathetic neuron is located in the lateral horn of the spinal cord. The 6th rib forms a costotransverse joint with the 6th thoracic vertebrae. The rough part of the costal tubercle provides attachment to the posterior costotransverse ligament. The scalene tuberosity is an atypical feature of the first rib.
