The posterior cervical or prepectoral l5rmph glands are reddish in color and usually three in number. The largest is placed centrally under the trachea; the others are situated on the brachial vessels as the^• tin-n aroimd the first Fig. 611.—Stomach .\nd Part of Intestine op Pig, Spread Otrr. a, Pyloric part of stomach; b, duodenum; c, jejunum; d. caecum; e, /, colon; g, pancreas; h, epiploic foramen; i, portal vein; k, hepatic lymph glands; I, gastric lymph glands: m, oesophagus. (After Edelmann.) The axillary lymph glands are usually absent, but very small nodes may be found near the ins(>rtion of the latissimus dorsi. Cubital glands are not present. The thoracic lymph glands comprise the following: (1) A sternal lymph gland of relatively large size lies on the first segment of the sternum. (2) The mediastinal lymph glands include: a number of small reddish nodes in the fat along the dorsal surface of the aorta; a gland on the left side of the trachea in front of the aortic arch; a gland on the aorta where it is crossed by the vena hemiazygos; two or three glands in the posterior mediastinum along the ventral surface of the aorta; several glands along the ventral surface of the trachea. (3) The bronchial lymph glands include one on the bifurcation of the trachea and another at the apical bronchus of the right Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readabilit
