| popliteal lymph nodes | Two groups of nodes located in the popliteal fossa: the superficial popliteal lymph nodes, located around the termination of the small saphenous vein, that drain the skin of the back of the leg and lateral side of the foot; and the deep popliteal lymph nodes, located around the popliteal vessels, that drain the superficial group, the deep structures of the leg, and the knee joint. Synonym: nodi lymphatici popliteales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior group of axillary lymph nodes | Node's of the axillary region located along the subscapular vein and its tributaries; they receive afferent vessels from the dorsal surface of the thorax and scapular region, and send efferent vessels to the central group of lymph nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici axillares subscapulares, posterior group of axillary lymph nodes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior mediastinal lymph nodes | Nodes located along the thoracic aorta; they receive vessels from the oesophagus, diaphragm, liver and pericardium and send efferents to the thoracic duct and bronchomediastinal lymphatic trunk(s). Synonym: nodi lymphatici mediastinales posteriores. (05 Mar 2000) |
| croupous lymph | A form of inflammatory lymph with an unusually large content of fibrinogen; as a result of the fibrin that is formed in relatively dense mats, a pseudomembrane is likely to be produced. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cubital lymph nodes | Two groups of nodes, superficial and deep, lying along the basilic vein above the medial epicondyle; they receive afferents from the ulnar side of the forearm and hand, and send efferents to the brachial nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici cubitales, epitrochlear nodes, lymph nodes of elbow. (05 Mar 2000) |
| preauricular deep parotid lymph nodes | Small lymph nodes located deep to the parotid fascia and in front of the ear. Synonym: preauricular deep parotid lymph nodes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| precaecal lymph nodes | Nodes located in front of the caecum draining lymph to the ileocolic nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici precaecales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| prelaryngeal lymph nodes | Lymph nodes of the anterior deep cervical group that lie in front of the larynx; they drain into the lateral deep lateral cervical nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici prelaryngeales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| prepericardiac lymph nodes | Several small lymph nodes located between the pericardium and the sternum, in the anterior mediastinum. Synonym: nodi lymphatici prepericardiales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pretracheal lymph nodes | Lymph nodes of the anterior deep cervical group that lie in front of the trachea; they drain into the lateral deep cervical group or into the anterior mediastinal group. Synonym: nodi lymphatici pretracheales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| prevertebral lymph nodes | Lymph nodes posterior to the thoracic aorta. Synonym: nodi lymphatici prevertebrales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sacral lymph nodes | Nodes in the concavity of the sacrum that drain the rectum and posterior pelvic wall. Synonym: nodi lymphatici sacrales. (05 Mar 2000) |
