  • Title: [Anatomy of the lymph vessels and nodes of the head and neck in green marmosets].
    Author: Sapin MR, Kafieva TA.
    Journal: Arkh Anat Gistol Embriol; 1977 Jul; 73(7):27-32. PubMed ID: 409381.
    Abstract:
    In 50 mature green monkeys, the lymphatic system of the skin on the hairy part of the skull (occipital, parietal, frontal) and on the face was studied. The lymphatic vessels of cranial and cervical organs flow into submental, submandibular (anterior, medial, posterior) lymph nodes and into profound cervical (cranial, medial, caudal) lymph nodes. Lymph nodes together with efferent lymphatic vessels form lymph collectors of the neck which follow the blood vessels branching: superficial jugular, profound jugular and paratracheal network.
