Q1. The bronchomediastinal trunks are formed mainly by efferent vessels from which lymph nodes?
- Popliteal nodes
- Epitrochlear nodes
- Tracheobronchial and mediastinal nodes
- Inguinal nodes
Q2. Which lymph nodes receive lymph from pulmonary and bronchopulmonary nodes before it reaches the trunks?
- Submental nodes
- Tracheobronchial nodes
- Deep inguinal nodes
- Popliteal nodes
Q3. Which sequence best represents lymph drainage from the lung toward a bronchomediastinal trunk?
- Submental to axillary to popliteal nodes
- Inguinal to iliac to lumbar nodes
- Pulmonary to bronchopulmonary to tracheobronchial nodes
- Mesenteric to cervical to inguinal nodes
Q4. At what anatomical junction is a venous angle formed?
- Aorta and pulmonary trunk
- Internal jugular and subclavian veins
- Femoral and popliteal veins
- Portal and splenic veins
Q5. Which statement best describes termination of the right bronchomediastinal trunk?
- It terminates in the abdomen
- It always enters the thoracic duct
- It may join the right lymphatic duct or venous angle
- It drains into the portal vein
Q6. Which statement best describes termination of the left bronchomediastinal trunk?
- It may join the thoracic duct or left venous angle
- It always enters the right lymphatic duct
- It terminates in the inferior vena cava
- It drains directly into the aorta
Q7. Which structure does the right bronchomediastinal trunk help drain?
- Both lower limbs directly
- Abdominal viscera exclusively
- Right thoracic structures
- Pelvic viscera directly
Q8. Which thoracic lymph nodes are closely associated with the tracheal bifurcation?
- Occipital nodes
- Axillary nodes
- Inferior tracheobronchial nodes
- Inguinal nodes
Q9. Why are bronchomediastinal trunks important in thoracic lymphatic drainage?
- They return thoracic lymph toward the venous system
- They pump blood to the lungs
- They produce pleural fluid
- They provide motor innervation
Q10. Which characteristic of bronchomediastinal trunk termination is anatomically important?
- Their termination is variable
- They always have identical termination
- They always terminate in the abdomen
- They never communicate with major lymphatic ducts
