Phrenic nerve
A branch of the cervical plexus that controls the movement of the diaphragm. It arises from the 3rd to 5th cervical nerves, crosses in front of the anterior scalene muscle, passes between the subclavian artery and vein, enters the thoracic cavity, then descends between the mediastinal pleura and pericardium to reach the diaphragm. It contains a small number of sensory and sympathetic fibers.
