They receive afferents from the diaphragm, the pericardium, the oesophagus, and other immediately adjacent tissues. Some of their efferents join the thoracic duct, others the broncho-mediastinal trunk, and some pass to the bronchial glands. (5) Lymphoglandulae Bronchiales.âUnder the term bronchial lymph glands are in- cluded all the lymph glands which are closely associated with the walls of the intra- thoracic part of the trachea and with the main bronchi and their intra - pulmonary branches. The glands are ex- tremely numerous, and they are conveniently classified, by Bartels, into four groupsâ(1) tracheo-bronchial right and left; (2) the glands of the bifurcation, also called inter- tracheo-bronchial; (3) broncho- pulmonary ; (4) pulmonary. At birth and for some years afterwards they are pink in colour, but later they become blackened by the deposit of carbonaceous particles derived from the atmosphere. (1) The Tracheo-Bronchial Lymph Glands are those which are situated in the lateral angle between the trachea and the bronchus, on each side On the right side they vary in number from 5 to 9, on the left from 3 to b. Those on the left are in close relation with the left recurrent nerve. Their afferents are derived from the other groups of bronchial glands and from the adjacent parts of the trachea and bronchi. They are connected with the anterior and posterior mediastinal glands. Their efferents pass to the broncho-mediastmal trunk and a
