As the nerve is traced downwards, it passes ventrally, and comes to lie behind the anterior cardinal vein; and at a still lower level it establishes a communication with the fifth cervical nerve, and comes to lie in a cup-shaped invagination at the junction of the anterior cardinal vein with the primitive subclavian vein from the limb bud (fig. 2).
