Lymphatics
|
part of the immune system; help fight disease process
|
|
Lymphatic Vessels
|
system of channelks that parallel venous blood vessels in location/have valves to ensure one way flow of lymph
|
|
lymph
|
tissue fluid from surrounding region
|
|
lymph nodes
|
bean shaped bodies grouped in clusters along connecting lymphatic vessels/filter toxic products from lymph to prevent entry into vascular system
|
|
lymphocytes
|
WBC within nodes; helps foght disease process
|
|
Afferent
|
lymph flows into nodes by way of ______ vessels
|
|
Efferent
|
lymph flows out of nodes by way of single_____ vessel.
|
|
Primary or Regional
|
Where lymph from particular tissue drains
|
|
secondary or central
|
after lymph from primary nodes drains
|
|
lymphatic ducts
|
larger lymphatic vessels that drain smaller vessels and then empty into the venous system
|
|
Right Side Lymphatics
|
converge by rt jugular trunk, joins lymph from rt arm and thorax to form rt lymphatic duct which drains into venous system at jnct. of rt subclavian and rt internal jugular
|
|
Left Side Lymphatics
|
converge into lft jugular trunk & then hold into thoracic duct & joins venous system at jnct of lft subclavian and lft internal jugular
|
