lymph drainage 2 Flashcards
(24 cards)
intercostal spaces’ lymph drain into the
PARASTERNAL / INTERNAL THORACIC NODES
- also receive the ff
- medial part of breast
- diaphragm
- umbilical region
INTERCOSTAL NODES near the head of ribs
-also receive from pleura
pericardiu lymph drain into
PHRENIC NODES
- also receive from
- diaphragm
- liver
drain into parasternal and posterior mediastinal LN
[anterior mediastinnal nodes]
-also receive from thymus
lymph of the heart
follow the right coronary artery to empty into the ANTERIOR MEDIASTINAL NODES
and follow the left coronary artery to tempty into the TRACHEOBRONCHIAL NODE
LN at the hilum of the lung
bronchopulmonary nodes
“hilar lymph nodes”
lymphatic drainage flow of the lungs
- superficial plexus and deep plexus
- bronchopulmonary / hilar ln
- tracheobronchial (inferior-superior) ln
- paratracheal ln
- bronchomediastinal ln and trunks
- thoracic duct / right lymphatic duct
level 2 axillary lymph node
central ln
LEVEL 1 (lateral to pectoralis minor)
anterior / pectoral ln
Posterior / scapular ln
lateral / humaera ln
LVEL 2 (deep to pectoralis minor) Central ln
Level 3 (medial to pectoralis minor) Apical ln
region above the umiblius drain into the
axillary ln
ln of upper part of esophagus
deep cervical
middle - mediastinal
lower - celiac
LD of lower rectum
internal iliiac nodes (following the middle rectal artery)
upper rectum:
pararectal —> inferior mesenteric nodes
“The lymph vessels of the rectum drain first into the par-arectal nodes and then into inferior mesenteric nodes. Lymph vessels from the lower part of the rectum follow the middle rectal artery to the internal iliac nodes.”
drainage of upper anus
inferior mesenteric ln
upper part of vagina drains into
internal iliac ln
-and “other pelivc organs”
and drain into the common iliac ln and then to lumbar ln (para-aortic ln)
LD of kidneys
lateral aortic ln
“para-aortic ln”
LD of adrenal glands
lateral aortic / para-aortic / lymbar nodes
LD of middle ureter
common iliac nodes
upper ureter
-to kidney lymphatics or to lumbar ln
middle ureter
-to common iliac ln
lower ureter
-to common, external, and internal iliac ln
pelvic ureter and bladder
-to internal ln
LD of urinary bladder
internal and external ln
LD of epididymis
lumbar ln
ld of seminal vesicles
internal iliac nodes
blood supply of seminal vesicles
inferior vesicle3 and middle rectal
secretions of seminal vesicle
fluid fructose ascorbicc acid amino acids prostaglands
LD of prostate
internal iliac nodes
blood supply of prostate
inferior vesical and middle rectal arteries
LD of uterine tubes
internal iliac ln
para-aortic nodes
LD of uterine body
interanl and external iliac nodes
(also cervix)
fundus - para-aortic nodes
LD of lower 1/3 of vagina
superficial inguinal nodes
upper 1/3: internal and external iiliac ln
middle 1/3: internal iliac ln
lower 1/3: superficial inguinal ln
