Lymphatic Drainage of the Head and Neck: Clinical Anatomy

Описание: Welcome to this final video in your lymphatic series! Understanding the cervical lymph node chains is absolutely essential for every clinician—especially in diagnosing local infections (like tonsillitis) and staging major cancers (oral, laryngeal, and even remote abdominal tumors).

05:34 Virchow's Node (Supraclavicular Node) - Troisier's Sign
09:07 Outer ring superficial groups
09:33 Submental nodes
10:48 Submandibular nodes
12:42 Buccal and mandibular nodes
13:45 Preauricular (protid) nodes
15:11 Retroauricular (mastoid) (posterior auricular) nodes
15:55 Occipital nodes
16:34 Inner ring deep groups
17:24 Retropharyngeal nodes
18:11 Paratracheal, pretracheal, infrahyoid, and prelaryngeal groups
19:16 Waldeyer ring overview
22:53 Adenoiditis and adenoid facies
24:33 Specific drainage routes of the lips
