It will be noted that the lower end ofthe latter line is about i inch distant from the epigastric triangle and that its upper endextends into the axilla. This axiUary extension may be entirely separate from the corpus SURGICAL ANATOMY OF THE BREAST 27 mammce, a.nd a primary tumor arising in this isolated portion of parenchyma would seemto be of axillary rather than mammary origin. The anterior thoracic sub-group of lymph nodes is practically in contact with thebreast when it extends in this manner around and beneath the axillary edge of the greatpectoral muscle, the deep fascia alone intervening.
