| Abstract | This study measured the vagus and phrenic nerves from 12 adult cadavers. We found that the width and thickness of the vagus and phrenic nerves were different in the chest. The distance from the point of the vagus nerve and phrenic nerve on the plane of the inferior border of portal pulmonary arteries (T point) was approximately 7 cm to the diaphragm and was approximately 10 cm to the clavicle level. The number of motor fibers in the vagus nerves was 1 716 +/- 362, and the number of nerve fibers was 4 473 +/- 653. The number of motor fibers in the phrenic nerves ranged from 3 078 +/- 684 to 4 794 +/- 638, and the number of nerve fibers ranged from 3 437 +/- 642 to 5 071 +/- 723. No significant difference was found in the total number of nerve fibers. The results suggest that width, thickness, and total number of nerve fibers are similar between the vagus and phrenic nerves, but the number of motor fibers is different between them. |
