mediastinal pleura

The mediastinal surface of the lung is in contact with the mediastinal pleura.

In the thorax, each phrenic nerve supplies the mediastinal pleura and pericardium.

It, as well as the mediastinal pleura, is innervated by the phrenic nerve.

The costomediastinal recess is a potential space at the border of the mediastinal pleura and the costal pleura.

Macroscopic invasion into surrounding fatty tissue or mediastinal pleura; microscopic invasion into capsule.

They have a white or pale yellow shaggy appearance and are typically distributed on the posterolateral chest wall, diaphragm, and mediastinal pleura.

Both of these nerves supply motor fibres to the diaphragm and sensory fibres to the fibrous pericardium, mediastinal pleura, and diaphragmatic peritoneum.

Parietal pleural (PL3) chest wall (including superior sulcus tumors), diaphragm, phrenic nerve, mediastinal pleura, or parietal pericardium.

The space is bounded anteriorly by the ascending aorta, posteriorly by the descending aorta, medially by the left main bronchus, and laterally by mediastinal pleura.

After pulling the left lung aside, the layer (mediastinal pleura) above the left arch is incised and the left arch and the ligamentum arteriosum are dissected out and separated from the surrounding structures.
