Describe the location and drained region of the pectoral group
incorrect
8.
Lymph nodes of the axilla receive and filter lymph from the ____ limb and from the ____ and _____ aspects of the trunk as far as the ______ and the _____ crest.
incorrect
9.
Where is the watershed between the inguinal and axillary drainage areas?
incorrect
10.
How are the pre-aortic nodes arranged? Where are they? What do they drain? What the efferents from these nodes form?
incorrect
11.
Which trunks join the right lymphatic duct?
incorrect
12.
Where are the superficial inguinal nodes located? Where do they receive lymph from?
incorrect
13.
* Describe the path and location of the thoracic duct
incorrect
14.
How are the major lymph node groups in the abdomen arranged?
incorrect
15.
What is the primary function of the lymphatic system?
incorrect
16.
Describe the location and drained region of the subscapular group
incorrect
17.
Which trunks empty into the thoracic duct?
incorrect
18.
How are the axillary nodes typically subdivided?
incorrect
19.
The lymphatic vessels from the wall of the thorax and abdomen for the most part drain into the ____ and ____ nodes. Some vessels pierce the body wall to run to deeper nodes, particularly in the anterior wall of the _____.
incorrect
20.
* * Where are the deep inguinal nodes? What structures do they drain?
A.
Left jugular, subclavian, bronchomediastinal trunks
B.
Receive ALL the lymph from the superficial nodes and from the deep structures of lower limb; efferent vessels ascend via femoral canal and drain into external iliac nodes.
C.
In superficial fascia below inguinal lig.; anterior and posterior surfaces of trunk below umbilicus, perineum including lower 1/2 of anal canal, vagina, and all of externa genitalia of both sexes (not testes), and superficial lymph vessels of lower limb
D.
THE RIGHT JUGULAR, subclavian, bronchomediastinal
E.
Few to superficial inguinal nodes, most unite with lymphatics from uterine tube and ovary passing to lumbar (para-aortic) nodes; internal, external, and common iliac nodes, sacral nodes
F.
Axillary and inguinal, thorax
G.
At the junction of the right internal jugular and the right subclavian veins
H.
Into abdomen; into external iliac nodes
I.
A line around the trunk at the level of the umbilicus
J.
@ Capillaries: arterial side: hydrostatic pressure exceeds osmotic pressure-->fluid out of vessels; some of it returns at venous end; rest of fluid removed by lymphatic capillaries-->lymphatics
K.
Internal iliac nodes (organs supplied by internal iliac arteries EXCEPT gonads, uterine tube, fundus, upper body of uterus, which drain into para-aortic/lumbar nodes); external iliac nodes-->common iliac nodes-->lumbar nodes
L.
drains excess fluid from body's tissue and returns it to the bloodstream; also includes tissues and organs that provide immunological responses (thymus gland, spleen, aggregates of lymphatic tissue in respiratory and digestive tract, and lymph nodes)
M.
begins as dilated sac (cysterna chili), behind the right of aorta (L1, L2); ascends via aortic hiatus on right of aorta and left of azygous v.; @ T5 crosses to left and reaches left of esophagus at level of sternal angle; empties @ l. SubcV and l. IJV
N.
By the territories they drain and their location
O.
Along front of aorta in 3 groups: celiac nodes (foregut), superior mesenteric nodes (midgut), inferior mesenteric nodes (hindgut); intestinal trunk (contributes to cysterna chili)
P.
along lower border of pectoralis minor behind pec major; receive from thoracic wall and anterior abdominal wall
Q.
Lie in front of subscapularis muscle; from scapular region and back
R.
Brachial (lateral), subscapular (posterior), pectoral (anterior), central, apical (subclavian)
S.
Along blood vessels; groups include pre-aortic and para-aortic nodes
T.
upper; anterior and posterior; umbilicus; iliac
Type the Answer that corresponds to the displayed Question.
