| lymphatic system | <anatomy> The tissues and organs (including the bone marrow, spleen, thymus and lymph nodes) that produce and store cells that fight infection and the network of vessels that carry lymph. (12 May 1997) |
|---|---|
| lymphatic tissue | A structure found within the lymphatic system that consists of lymphocytes within a network of fibres. (09 Oct 1997) |
| lymphatic valvule | One of the delicate semilunar valves found in lymphatic vessels; they are usually paired and similar in structure to venous valves and occur at close intervals along the vessel wall. Synonym: valvula lymphatica. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphatic vessel | <anatomy> Vessels that remove cellular waste from the body by filtering through lymph nodes and eventually emptying into the blood system. They are similar to blood vessels but transport lymph fluid. (14 Oct 1997) |
| lymphatic vessel tumours | Neoplasms composed of lymphoid tissue, a lattice work of reticular tissue the interspaces of which contain lymphocytes. The concept does not refer to neoplasms located in lymphatic vessels. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lymphatic vessels | The vessels that convey the lymph; they anastomose freely with each other. Synonym: vasa lymphatica, absorbent vessels, lymphatic vessels, lymphatics. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphaticostomy | Making an opening into a lymphatic duct. Origin: Lymphatic + G. Stoma, mouth (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphatics | Lymphatics are small thin channels similar to blood vessels. They do not carry blood, but collect and carry tissue fluid from the body to ultimately drain back into the blood stream. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lymphatitis | Inflammation of the lymphatic vessels or lymph nodes. Origin: Lymphatic + G. -itis, inflammation (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphatology | The study of the lymphatic system. Origin: Lymphatic + G. Logos, study (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphatolysis | Destruction of the lymphatic vessels or lymphoid tissue, or both. Origin: Lymphatic + G. Lysis, dissolution (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphatolytic | Pertaining to or characterised by lymphatolysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphectasia | Synonym: lymphangiectasis. Origin: Lymph + G. Ektasis, a stretching (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphedema | <dermatology, oncology> Swelling of the subcutaneous tissues caused by obstruction of the lymphatic drainage. It results from fluid accumulation and may arise from surgery, radiation or the presence of a tumour in the area of the lymph nodes. (14 Oct 1997) |
| lymphedema praecox | A form of lymphedema observed chiefly in young women and girls, characterised by diffuse swelling of the lower extremities. Synonym: lymphedema praecox. (05 Mar 2000) |
