Lymph Nodes 3D

  • Description

    • *superficial and deep lymph nodes.                                                                                                                                                                          
  • Superficial lymph Nodes

    • * Superficial Inguinal lymph nodes.                                                                                                                                                                                      
  • Superficial Inguinal Group of Lymph Nodes

    • * They are located subcutaneously near the saphenofemoral junction and drain the skin and fasciae of the lower limb, the perineum, and the trunk below the umbilical plane.
    • * They are divided into three sets, the lower vertical group, upper lateral group, and upper medial group.
    • * Efferents from all superficial inguinal nodes terminate in the deep inguinal nodes. A few may pass directly to the external iliac nodes                                                                                                                                               
  • Deep lymph Nodes
    • * These include deep inguinal lymph nodes, popliteal lymph nodes, and anterior tibial lymph nodes.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
  • Deep Inguinal Lymph Nodes:

    • * These lie deep to the fascia lata on the medial side of the femoral vein.
    • * These receive lymph from deep-lymph vessels and drain it into the external iliac nodes through the femoral canal.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        
  •  Popliteal lymph Nodes:

    • * These nodes lie near the termination of the small saphenous vein, deep to the deep fascia.
    • * They receive afferents from the territory of the small saphenous vein, the deep parts of the leg, and the knee joint.
    • * Their efferents run along the popliteal and femoral vessels and terminate in the deep inguinal nodes.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
  •  Anterior Tibial lymph Node:

    • * One inconstant node may lie along the upper part of the anterior tibial artery.
    • * When present, it collects lymph from the anterior compartment of the leg and passes it on to the popliteal nodes
