In the lower part of the posterior mediastinum, however, the right sac approaches the median line. 2. The lungs may be mapped out in part by lines similar to those given for the pleural sacs. The apex of the ■ R upper lobe of each lung extends into the supra- Fig. xvii., clavicular region, and the anterior margins5. converge towards the angle of Ludwig, cutting obliquely across the corresponding sterno-clavicular joint. The two anterior borders do not, however, meet at the angle of Ludwig, for the right lung on reaching the middle line passes vertically downwards as far as the level of the sixth or seventh chondro-sternal junction, whilst the left lung runs down behind the left border of the sternum to the junction of the fourth costal cartilage with the sternum.
