Q1. What is the positional relationship of the inferior tracheobronchial nodes to the main bronchi?
- Above the cervical trachea
- Within the bronchial lumina
- Below the diaphragm
- Between the main bronchi
Q2. Which sequence can carry lymph from lung tissue to the inferior tracheobronchial nodes?
- Intercostal, pulmonary, parasternal
- Pulmonary, bronchopulmonary, inferior tracheobronchial
- Diaphragmatic, parasternal, pulmonary
- Parasternal, intercostal, inferior tracheobronchial
Q3. Which nodal group lies immediately peripheral to the tracheobronchial nodes at the lung hilum?
- Intercostal lymph nodes
- Bronchopulmonary lymph nodes
- Diaphragmatic lymph nodes
- Parasternal lymph nodes
Q4. Which nodes can receive efferent drainage from the inferior tracheobronchial nodes?
- Superior tracheobronchial nodes
- Popliteal nodes
- Submental nodes
- Inguinal nodes
Q5. Which surface landmark approximates the level of the tracheal bifurcation in an adult?
- Xiphisternal joint

- Costal margin
Q6. The sternal angle corresponds approximately to which vertebral level?
- T8 vertebral body
- T1 vertebral body

- T12 vertebral body
Q7. Why are inferior tracheobronchial nodes considered central pulmonary drainage stations?
- They receive major pulmonary lymphatic drainage
- They innervate the main bronchi
- They supply pulmonary arterial blood
- They produce bronchial mucus
Q8. Which major lymphatic trunks ultimately receive drainage from central tracheobronchial pathways?
- Subclavian trunks exclusively
- Intestinal trunk
- Lumbar trunks
- Bronchomediastinal trunks
Q9. Which structure lies directly superior to the carinal nodal region?
- Abdominal aorta
- Distal trachea
- Diaphragm
- Urinary bladder
Q10. Which statement best distinguishes carinal nodes from hilar nodes?
- Carinal nodes are at the bifurcation, hilar nodes are at lung roots
- Carinal nodes are parasternal, hilar nodes are intercostal
- Carinal nodes are cervical, hilar nodes are pelvic
- Carinal nodes are within lungs, hilar nodes are abdominal
