We present the normal anatomy of head and neck lymph nodes and the US, CT, and MRI appearances in normal and pathologic states to help clinicians generate a reasonable differential diagnosis and prevent unnecessary procedures.doi:10.1007/s00247-009-1250-5Ricardo Restrepo...
In addition, 3D renderings of the axial skeleton, vessels, thyroid and lymph nodes were also used. The anatomical structures have been labeled by Stephan Mahler, DVM, MA, MSc, PhD (Veterinary Anatomist - Montpellier, France), according to the Nomina Anatomica Veterinaria (NAV). They have ...
The head and neck contain a rich and elaborate lymphatic network of more than 300 nodes and their intermediate channels (seeImage.Lymph Nodes of the Neck). Aponeuroses bind them with the muscles, nerves, and vessels of the head and neck. These lymphatic chains are strongly lateralized and ty...
In the region of the cervical tract, there are about 300 lymphatic nodes. Those responsible for draining the lymph from the scalene muscles are always located in the back triangle of the neck. The drained lymph arrives in the jugular lymphatic trunks found both right and left. Further, the r...
The tumors that most often arise in ectopic salivary gland tissue in the lymph nodes are Warthin tumor and sebaceous lymphadenoma, which are most often found within intraparotid lymph nodes and less often within extraglandular lymph nodes. Rarely, other types of salivary gland tumors arise within...

The normal gross and computed tomographic (CT) anatomy of the infrahyoid neck is reviewed. Special emphasis is given to the location of major lymph node chains. Key anatomical levels in the neck are identified, enabling the interpreter of CT scans to place any lesion accurately in space关键词...
Cancers in the head and neck region commonly metastasize to cervical lymph nodes. The term "neck dissection" refers to a surgical procedure in which the fibrofatty contents of the neck are removed for the treatment of cervical lymphatic metastases. Neck dissection is most commonly used in the ma...
This article will discuss theanatomyand function of the lymph nodes of the head, neck and arm. Key points about the lymph nodes of the head, neck and upper limb Table quiz DefinitionLymph nodes of the head, neck and upper limb receive, filter and transport lymphatic fluid from surrounding ...
The lymphatic drainage of the periocular adnexa is primarily via the facial lymph nodes (infraorbital, buccinator, and malar groups). The lateral tissue drains into the superficial parotid group of lymph nodes (i.e., preauricular nodes), while the medial tissue drains into the submandibular nodes...
