Topography. 



393. Horizontal Section of the Thorax 



at the lower end of the Gladiolus of the Sternum, immediately above 

 the s vi mm it of the Diaphragm. 



Fig. 370, 391, 392 and 393 are drawings from sections, which were 

 made with the saw from the frozen cadaver of a child about a year 

 old ; these drawings are made in natural size. The same thing holds 

 good for these, which was said for the sections from frozen extremities, 

 that is, the sections were made from the lower cut surface, so that, 

 supposing the cadaver to stand erect, the drawings are seen in bird's 

 eye view.
