Celiac lymph nodes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The celiac lymph nodes are associated with the branches of the celiac artery. Other lymph nodes in the abdomen are associated with the superior and inferior mesenteric arteries. The celiac lymph nodes are grouped into three sets: the gastric, hepatic and splenic lymph nodes.[citation needed] They receive lymph from the stomach, duodenum, pancreas, spleen, liver, and gall bladder.[1]
