The lymphatics are heavily shaded, x being a vessel along the left vagus nerve and y along the aorta. The large jugular lymph sac is in contact with the internal jugular vein, ; it passes to the junction of the external jugular {) and sub- clavian veins, the latter being formed by the union of the primitive ulnar, , and external mammary veins, The mesenteric sac is in front of the vena cava inferior {) and below the renal anastomosis {). Other veins include AZ., azygos, v., vitelline; C, gastric; , superior mesenteric; etc. The figures indicate the position of the corresponding cervical nerves. (From Bremer"s "Text Book of ;) diminishes in later stages, it was formerly thought that lymphatics are outgrowths of veins. Today, however, this evidence seems less con- vincing than it did to earlier Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Neal, Herbert V.
