These pics show important anatomy for a muscle sparing (or splitting) thoracotomy. Important landmarks are the auscultatory triangle (latissimus, trapezius, and scapula), the serratus anterior, and the paraspinal muscles. Using software , I'm able to cut away the latissimus to fully view the serratus along with it insertions.
