| internal iliac lymph nodes | Nodes that lie along the internal iliac artery and its branches; they receive lymph from the pelvic viscera, the gluteal region, and the deep parts of the perineum, and send efferent vessels to the common iliac nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici iliaci interni. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| interpectoral lymph nodes | Small lymph nodes located between the pectoralis major and minor muscles; they receive lymph from the muscles and the mammary gland, and deliver lymph to the axillary lymphatic plexus. Synonym: nodi lymphatici interpectorales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intraglandular deep parotid lymph nodes | Small lymph nodes of the deep parotid group lying within the parotid gland. Synonym: nodi lymphatici parotidei intraglandulares, intraglandular parotid lymph nodes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intraglandular parotid lymph nodes | Small lymph nodes of the deep parotid group lying within the parotid gland. Synonym: nodi lymphatici parotidei intraglandulares, intraglandular parotid lymph nodes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intravascular lymph | Lymph within the lymphatic vessels, in contrast to intercellular lymph and lymph that has exuded from the vessels. (05 Mar 2000) |
| obturator lymph nodes | Nodes of the internal iliac group located along the obturator artery. Synonym: nodi lymphatici obturatorii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| occipital lymph nodes | One or two small nodes along the occipital vessels close to the trapezius muscle that receive afferents from the posterior scalp and drain into the superior deep cervical nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici occipitales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thyroid lymph nodes | Nodes of the anterior deep cervical group located around the thyroid gland; they drain into the lateral deep cervical group. Synonym: nodi lymphatici thyroidei. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tissue lymph | True lymph, i.e., lymph derived chiefly from fluid in tissue spaces (in contrast to blood lymph). (05 Mar 2000) |
| tracheal lymph nodes | Nodes along the sides of the trachea in the neck and in the posterior mediastinum; receive drainage of superior (and inferior) tracheobranchial (nodes, trachea and oesophagus); drain to bronchomediastinal lymphatic trunk(s), thoracic duct. Synonym: nodi lymphatici paratracheales, tracheal lymph nodes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| euplastic lymph | Lymph that contains relatively few leukocytes, but a comparatively high concentration of fibrinogen; such lymph clots fairly well and tends to become organised with fibrous tissue. (05 Mar 2000) |
| juxta-intestinal lymph nodes | The mesenteric lymph nodes located in immediate proximity to the jejunum or ileum. Synonym: nodi lymphatici juxta-intestinales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| juxta-oesophageal pulmonary lymph nodes | Several nodes of the posterior mediastinal group located along either side of the oesophagus; they receive lymph from both the oesophagus and the lungs. Synonym: nodi lymphatici juxta-oesophageales pulmonales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| external iliac lymph nodes | Nodes located in association with the external iliac vein; they are subdivided into three groups: intermediate external iliac lymph nodes, between the vein and the external iliac artery; lateral external iliac lymph nodes, and medial external iliac lymph nodes, medial to the vein; they all receive afferent vessels from the inguinal nodes, lower abdominal wall, and pelvic viscera, and send efferent vessels to the common iliac nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici iliaci externi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| facial lymph nodes | A chain of lymph nodes lying along the facial vein that receive afferent vessels from the eyelids, nose, cheek, lip, and gums, and send efferent vessels to the submandibular nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici faciales. (05 Mar 2000) |
