Vertical Section of the Back

“The spinal column below the twelfth dorsal vertebra at A has been removed, as well as the various layers of the great muscles of the back. The two kidneys with the renal arteries and veins are plainly shown, in their normal positions. The relative positions of adjacent vessels and organs with their names printed upon them are also shown. B, portion of the diaphragm on the left side; C, receptaculum chyli; D, a part of the small intestine on the left side.” — Blaisedell, 1904
