No. Frogs do not have a thoracic cavity
Your thoracic cavity starts from the upper margin of the thoracic vertebra to upper margin of the manubrium of the sternum. There is your diaphragm on the lower side.
Sympathetic nerves originate inside the vertebral column, toward the middle of the spinal cord in the intermediolateral cell column (or lateral horn), beginning at the first thoracic segment of the spinal cord and are thought to extend to the second or third lumbar segments. Because its cells begin in the thoracic and lumbar regions of the spinal cord, the SNS is said to have a thoracolumbar outflow. Axons of these nerves leave the spinal cord through the anterior rootlet/root. They pass near the spinal (sensory) ganglion, where they enter the anterior rami of the spinal nerves. At the synapses within the ganglia, preganglionic neurons release acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that activates nicotinic acetylcholine receptors on postganglionic neurons. In response to this stimulus postganglionic neurons - with two important exceptions - release norepinephrine, which activates adrenergic receptors on the peripheral target tissues. The parasympathetic nerves (PSNS) are autonomic (aka "visceral") branches of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Parasympathetic nerve fibers arise from the central nervous system with the S2, S3, and S4 spinal nerves and from the third, seventh, ninth, and tenth cranial nerves.The parasympathetic nervous system uses chiefly acetylcholine (ACh) as its neurotransmitter, although other peptides (such as cholecystokinin) may act on the PSNS as a neurotransmitter.
Parasympathetic part of autonomic system. It is also called the craniosacral division because the preganglionic neurons occur in the brainstem and sacral regions. Similarly, the sympathetic part of autonomic system also called the thoracolumbar division because the preganglionic neurons occur in the thoracic and lumbar segments of the body.

Thoracic ganglia are part of the sympathetic system. There are twelve different ganglion, and some are larger than others.
visceral pleura
gray matter of the thoracic and upper lumbar segments of the spinal cord
Preganglionic sympathetic axons leave the spinal cord throughout the thoracic spine and the upper lumber spine (T1-L2).These preganglionic sympathetic axons exit the spinal canal within the anterior primary ramus and then quickly separate to travel via the white ramus communicans to the ipsilateral sympathetic trunk.
vagus (X)
The sympathetic division is part of the autonomic nervous within the thoracic and lumbar regions in the spinal cord area.
Preganglionic innervation is not provided to any organ. You get parasympathetic innervation to the said organs via tenth cranial nerve. Name of this nerve is vagus.
The parts are: the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and pelvic regions. :)
It pertains to the thorax... But you can use it as a thoracic spine, thoracic surgery, thoracic cavity, thoracic outlet syndrome, thoracic spine pain, thoracic vertebrae, thoracic medicine, thoracic surgeons, thoracic strains, sprain thoracic, or thoracic spine disorder; it's pretty self explanatory.
