LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE
posterior abdominal wall:
The small upper left and upper right nodes The larger lower left and lower right portions lateral and retro aortic lymph nodes Or the left and right superficial inguinal nodes.
lateral aortic
Dr. Maria Zahiri abdominal viscera: through the cisterna chyli and the thoracic duct The lymph nodes of the retroperitoneum lie around the abdominal aorta and form pre-aortic, lateral aortic and retro-aortic groups.
Collectively, they are referred to as the para-aortic
lymph nodes
Dr. Maria Zahiri
Dr. Maria Zahiri
Cisterna chyli and abdominal lymph trunks
The abdominal origin of the thoracic duct: • lies to the right of the midline • at the level of the lower border of the T12 • receives all the lymph delivered by the four main abdominal lymph trunks
Dr. Maria Zahiri The lumbar lymph trunks are formed by vessels draining from the lateral aortic nodes. Thus, either directly or after traversing intermediary groups, they carry lymph from: the lower limbs , the full thickness of the pelvic , perineal and infra-umbilical abdominal walls , the deep tissues of most of the supra-umbilical abdominal walls , most of the pelvic viscera , gonads , kidneys and suprarenal glands .
Dr. Maria Zahiri The intestinal lymph trunks receive vessels draining from coeliac nodes and, via these nodes, the superior and inferior mesenteric nodes , which are collectively the
pre-aortic nodes.
Either directly or via intermediary groups, they drain the entire abdominal gastrointestinal tract down to
the anus.
Dr. Maria Zahiri
Pre-aortic group
lie around the origins of the anterior (visceral) arteries and receive lymph from the gastrointestinal tract and its accessory structures (liver, spleen and pancreas) from the abdominal oesophagus to the level of the anus. They are divisible into coeliac , superior mesenteric inferior mesenteric these arteries.
and groups, being near the origins of
Dr. Maria Zahiri
Coeliac nodes
• The coeliac nodes lie anterior to the abdominal aorta around the origin of the coeliac artery. • receive lymph draining from the regional lymph nodes around the branches of the coeliac artery (left gastric, hepatic and pancreaticosplenic nodes). • They also receive lymph from the lower pre-aortic groups (the superior mesenteric and inferior mesenteric).
Dr. Maria Zahiri
Gastric Nodes
• There are a great number of gastric lymph node groups. They drain the stomach, upper duodenum, abdominal oesophagus and the greater omentum. • They drain to the coeliac group.
Dr. Maria Zahiri
Hepatic Nodes
• • They vary in number and site but almost occur at the junction of the cystic and common hepatic ducts (the cystic node), and in the anterior border of the epiploic foramen. • Hepatic nodes drain the majority of the liver, gallbladder and bile ducts, but also receive drainage from some parts of the stomach, duodenum and pancreas. • They drain to the coeliac nodes
Dr. Maria Zahiri
Pancreaticosplenic Nodes
The pancreaticosplenic nodes drain the spleen, pancreas and part of the stomach. Their afferents join the coeliac nodes.
Dr. Maria Zahiri
Superior mesenteric and inferior mesenteric nodes
• • lie anterior to the aorta near the origins of their respective arteries. They collect from outlying groups, including the mesenteric , ileocolic , … • drain into the coeliac nodes.
Dr. Maria Zahiri
lateral aortic group
The lateral aortic nodes lie on either side of the abdominal aorta anterior to the medial margins of psoas major, diaphragmatic crura and sympathetic trunks. On the right, some nodes lie lateral and anterior to the inferior vena cava near the end of the right renal vein.
Dr. Maria Zahiri
lateral aortic group
The lateral aortic nodes drain the viscera and other structures supplied by the lateral and dorsal aortic branches. The upper lateral groups receive the lymph drainage directly from the suprarenal glands, kidneys, ureters, gonads, uterine tubes and upper uterus. They also receive lymph directly from the deeper tissues of the posterior abdominal wall.
Dr. Maria Zahiri Lymphatics from the pelvis, most of the pelvic viscera, the perineum and the anterolateral abdominal wall pass first to regional nodes largely related to the iliac arteries and their branches.
These include the common iliac, external iliac, internal iliac and circumflex iliac nodes, in addition to the inferior epigastric and sacral nodes.
Dr. Maria Zahiri Lymph from the lower limbs passes through the pelvic lymph nodes via the iliac groups.
The lateral aortic group drains into the two lumbar lymph trunks, one on each side, which terminate in the confluence of lymph trunks.
A few vessels may pass to the pre-aortic and retro-aortic nodes and others cross the midline to flow into the contralateral nodes, forming a loose plexus.
Dr. Maria Zahiri
Retro-aortic group
The retro-aortic group is the smallest of all the para-aortic lymph nodes.
They have no particular areas of drainage, although they may receive some lymph directly from the paraspinal posterior abdominal wall.
They effectively provide peripheral nodes of the lateral aortic groups and interconnect between surrounding groups.

Dr. Maria Zahiri
Motor –
transversus abdominis and internal oblique, including the conjoint tendon.
Sensory - The iliohypogastric nerve supplies sensory fibres to transversus abdominis, internal oblique and external oblique, and innervates the posterolateral gluteal and suprapubic skin.
Dr. Maria Zahiri
Ilioinguinal nerve
• • • • • originates from the L1 ventral ramus It is smaller than the iliohypogastric nerve the lateral border of psoas major just inferior to the iliohypogastric nerve Ilioinguinal nerve emerges with the cord • skin of the thigh and the skin over the root of the penis and upper part of the scrotum in males, or the skin covering the mons pubis and the adjoining labium majus in females.

Dr. Maria Zahiri
Genitofemoral nerve
• • • originates from the L1 and L2 ventral rami. It is formed within the substance of psoas major It descends beneath the peritoneum on psoas major Crosses obliquely behind the ureter and divides above the inguinal ligament into genital and femoral branches.
Dr. Maria Zahiri Genitofemoral nerve often divides close to its origin; its branches then emerge separately from psoas major.
The genital branch crosses the lower part of the external iliac artery, enters the inguinal canal by the deep ring and supplies cremaster and the skin of the scrotum in males.
In females, it accompanies the round ligament and ends in the skin of the mons pubis and labium majus.
Dr. Maria Zahiri The femoral branch descends lateral to the external iliac artery and sends a few filaments round it. It then crosses the deep circumflex iliac artery passes behind the inguinal ligament and enters the femoral sheath lateral to the femoral artery.
Dr. Maria Zahiri Motor – cremaster via the genital branch.
Cutaneous –
the skin of the scrotum in males or mons pubis and labium majus in females via the genital branch, and the anteromedial skin of the thigh via the femoral branch.
Dr. Maria Zahiri
Femoral nerve
descends through psoas major It passes between psoas major and iliacus and runs posterior to the inguinal ligament into the thigh.
It gives off branches, which supply iliacus and pectineus and sensory fibers to the femoral artery Posterior to the inguinal ligament, it lies lateral to the femoral artery and is separated from it by a part of psoas major.
The lateral femoral cutaneous nerve of the thigh emerges from the lateral border of psoas major and crosses iliacus obliquely towards the anterior superior iliac spine. It supplies sensory fibers to the parietal peritoneum in the iliac fossa. The right nerve passes posterolateral to the caecum, separated from it by the iliac fascia and peritoneum. The left nerve passes behind the lower part of the descending colon. Both pass behind or through the inguinal ligament c.l cm medial to the anterior superior iliac spine and anterior to, or through, sartorius into the thigh.
Dr. Maria Zahiri
Obturator nerve
The obturator nerve descends within the substance of psoas major to emerge from its medial border at the level of the pelvic brim.
It passes posterior to the common iliac vessels and lateral to the internal iliac vessels. It then descends on the lateral wall of the pelvis attached to the fascia over obturator intern us. Here it lies anterosuperior to the obturator vessels before running into the obturator foramen to enter the thigh. It gives no branches in the abdomen or pelvis.
Dr. Maria Zahiri
Accessory obturator nerve
When present, the accessory obturator nerve emerges from the medial border of psoas major and runs along this border over the posterior surface of the superior pubic ramus posterior to pectineus. It gives off branches here to supply pectineus and the hip joint, and it may join with the main obturator nerve.
Dr. Maria Zahiri
LUMBOSACRAL PLEXUS
The lumbosacral plexus provides the nerve supply to the pelvis and lower limb, in addition to part of the autonomic supply to the pelvic viscera. It gives origin to the sciatic, inferior gluteal, superior gluteal and pudendal nerves, in addition to the nerves to quadratus femoris, obturator intemus and the posterior cutaneous nerve of the thigh.
