| appendicular lymph nodes | Nodes along the appendicular vessels in the mesoappendix; they receive afferent vessels from the vermiform appendix and send efferent vessels to the ileocolic lymph nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici appendiculares. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bifurcation lymph nodes | Several large lymph nodes inferior to the tracheal bifurcation; they receive afferents from the bronchopulmonary nodes and the heart, and send efferents to the superior tracheobronchial and tracheal nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici tracheobronchiales inferiores, bifurcation lymph nodes, carinal lymph nodes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| brachial lymph nodes | Lymph nodes along the brachial vein that receive lymph drainage from most of the free superior limb and send efferent vessels to the central group of axillary lymph nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici brachiales, brachial lymph nodes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bronchopulmonary lymph nodes | Lymph nodes in the hilum of the lung that receive lymph from the pulmonary node's, and drain to the tracheobronchial nodes. Synonym: glandulae bronchiales, bronchial glands, hilar lymph nodes, nodi lymphatici bronchopulmonales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| carinal lymph nodes | Several large lymph nodes inferior to the tracheal bifurcation; they receive afferents from the bronchopulmonary nodes and the heart, and send efferents to the superior tracheobronchial and tracheal nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici tracheobronchiales inferiores, bifurcation lymph nodes, carinal lymph nodes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pancreatic lymph nodes | Nodes draining the body and tail of the pancreas; they are subdivided into two groups: inferior pancreatic lymph nodes (nodi lymphatici pancreatici inferiores ), located along the inferior pancreatic artery; superior pancreatic lymph nodes (nodi lymphatici pancreatici superiores ), located along the splenic artery near the origin of its pancreatic branches. Synonym: nodi lymphatici pancreatici. (05 Mar 2000) |

| gastroduodenal lymph nodes | Group of nodes surrounding the pylorus, draining lymph into the right gastric or the right gastro-omental lymph nodes; it is divided into three smaller groups: suprapyloric lymph nodes, above the pylorus; subpyloric lymph nodes, below the pylorus; and retropyloric lymph nodes, behind the pylorus. Synonym: nodi lymphatici pylorici, gastroduodenal lymph nodes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| paramammary lymph nodes | Several lymph nodes on the lateral side of the mammary gland that receive afferents from the mammary gland and send efferents to the axillary pectoral group of lymph nodes. The paramammary lymph nodes are commonly considered as part of the pectoral group of axillary nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici paramammarii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pararectal lymph nodes | Nodes located on either side of the rectum; they send efferents to the middle rectal and superior rectal nodes. Synonym: nodi lymphatici pararectales, nodi lymphatici anorectales, anorectal lymph nodes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| parasternal lymph nodes | A number of small nodes that lie along the course of the internal thoracic vessels; lymph enters these nodes from the anterior intercostal spaces, pericardium, diaphragm, liver and medial mammary gland; the efferent vessels pass upward to join the bronchomediastinal trunk of the same side. Synonym: nodi lymphatici parasternales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| parauterine lymph nodes | Nodes on either side of the uterus draining lymph to the internal iliac nodes and to the lumbar nodes via lymphatic vessels following the ovarian arteries. Synonym: nodi lymphatici parauterini. (05 Mar 2000) |
