Where does the valve stop retrograde flow?
|
At the junction of subclavian and internal jugular veins (stops blood from entering lymphatic ducts)
|
|
High volume chylothorax is usually a result of?
|
Iatrogenic esophagectomy
|
|
Carcinomas VS sarcomas spread where?
But.... |
-lymphatic channels
-vascular or hematogenous routes (numerous interconnections could allow either to go in both) |
|
Define:
Lymphedema Lymangitis Lymphadenopathy |
-abnormal accumulation of lymph
-infection spreading into channels (usually hemolytic streptococcus) -lymph node enlargement secondary to primary disorder (infection) |
|
Cancers close to vertebral column pass through what valveless veins?
|
Paravertebral venous plexus (loss of pedicles on X-ray)- cancer can spread to the brain
|
|
What are the 6 primary lymph sacs?
|
(outpuchings form developing veins)
2 jugular, 1 retroperitoneal, 1 cisterna chyli, 2 iliac sacs |
|
Describe head and neck drainage and the 2 groups of deep nodes?
|
NO lymph vessels in brain, head and neck drains into deep cervical nodes surrounding internal jugular vein (in carotid sheath)
2 groups: jugulodigastric + jugulo omohyoid |
|
Where does the scalp drain?
|
3 collecting channels: anterior auricular, retroauricular, and occipital nodes
|
|
Where do all the tonsils drain?
Blood supply? |
superior or jugulo-digastric nodes (deep cervical)
-facial artery |
|
Cervical lymphadenitis= bilateral VS unilateral?
|
enlarged neck lymph nodes
bilateral= viral unilateral= bacteral |
|
Hodgkins lymphoma?
|
chronic enlargement of lymph nodes- can present unilaterally
|
|
Scrofuloderma?
|
lymphadenopathy most commonly of cervical nodes (related to TB)
|
|
What is most common cancer of oral cavity?
|
squamous cell carcinoma
|
|
Lung drainage... superficial plexus VS deep plexus
[L lower lobe VS R lobe] |
Super= drains lung and visceral pleura and empties into bronchopulmonary (HILAR) nodes in lung hilum
Deep= drains lung root first to pulmonary nodes > lobar bronchi > HILAR nodes BOTH= tracheobronchial lymph nodes at bifurcation > thoracic duct -L lower lobe- goes to carinal nodes then R tracheobronchial |
|
Heart - subendocardial + myocardial plexus?
subepicardial? |
-all communicate freely
-from subepicardial both trunks R/L drain into L bronchomediastinal nodes > thoracic duct |
|
Esophagus= cervical ?
thoracic? abdominal? ALL? |
-C6-T1 = deep cervical lymph nodes
-T1-10= mediastinal and peritracheal nodes then thoracic duct -T11-12 around L gastric vein into Celiac lymph nodes |
|
Superficial inguinal nodes:
vertical VS horizontal? Deep inguinal nodes? |
-Great saphenous vein - vertical
-gluteal, ant abd wall, external genitalia (vertical) -small saphenous - popliteal - into deep inguinal (lateral foot) BOTH end in ext iliac nodes |
|
Lumbar nodes receive from?
|
receives from common iliac (which receives from post abd wall, kidneys, ureters, testes/ovaries, uterus + tube
|
|
What is the cisterna chyli?
|
thin walled sac inf to thoracic duct which ascends in aortic hiatus (T12) (made from lumbar nodes)
-dumps into left venous angle |
|
Thoracic duct originates where and ascends with?
Sentinal node of virchow? |
originates at cisterna chyli and ends at the L venous angle
-at L venous angle - inflammation shows dz in or below thoarx |
|
Where does the bladder drain?
Kidneys? |
-External or internal iliac nodes > lumbar > CC
-lumbar (lateral aortic) - parts that help form CC |
|
Ureters: upper?
middle? lower? all? |
-lumbar nodes
-common iliac nodes -external or internal iliac ALL= lumbar trunks |
|
Pelvic viscera=
*uterus upper VS lower? isthmus of fallopian tube? |
sacral > internal > external and common iliac nodes
-upper= lateral and preaortic nodes -lower= external iliac -isthmus= around round ligament to superficial lymph nodes |
|
Testes + ovaries drain into?
Why can this be scary? |
lateral and preaortic lymph nodes then into CC
-no outward sign to show cancer is well-advanced |
|
how does deep thoracic duct travel in regards to veins?
what about vertebral artery? |
runs ANTERIOR to the communicating veins (azygos)
-and it crosses L subclavian artery passing ANT to vertebral art |
|
Describe major breast lymph flow?
|
-superolateral >anterior/pectoral
-apical -sternal -abdominal R= Rt. lymphatic duct L=Thoracic duct (pectoral-apical-duct "PAD") |
|
How can breast cancer cause a brain tumor?
|
Breast can connect with intercostal veins > azygos system> epidural venous plexus (no valves) > dural venous sinus
|
|
what is anasarca?
|
widespread accumulation of fluid in all tissues and cavities of the body at the same time
"extreme edema" |
|
Upper limb drainage= medial VS lateral.. ALL?
|
(deep channels accompany deep veins)
-medial= basilic >cubital fossa > brachial veins > axillary -lateral= cephalic > deltopectoral triangle > axillary vein |
|
Round ligament of the uterus attaches to what and drains where?
|
-wall to the ovary and drains into superficial inguinal lymph nodes (along with fundus of the uterus)
|
