    The right phrenic nerve passes over the brachiocephalic artery, posterior to the subclavian vein, and then crosses the root of the right lung anteriorly and then leaves the thorax by passing through the vena cava hiatus opening in the diaphragm at the level of T8. The right phrenic nerve passes over the right atrium.

[7] While the central portion of the diaphragm sends sensory afferents via the phrenic nerve, the peripheral portions of the diaphragm send sensory afferents via the intercostal (T5–T11) [8] and subcostal nerves (T12).

    The cystic plexus is the derivation of the hepatic plexus, which is the largest offshoot from the celiac plexus. [1] [2]Formed by branches from the celiac plexus, the right and left vagi and the right phrenic nerve, parasympathetic nerves are motor to the musculature of the gall bladder and bile ducts, but inhibitory to the sphincters.

    Autonomic nervous system, showing splanchnic nerves in middle, and the vagus nerve as "X" in blue. The heart and organs below in list to right are regarded as viscera. The autonomic nervous system has been classically divided into the sympathetic nervous system and parasympathetic nervous system only (i.e., exclusively motor).
