Thoracic Lymphatics

Thoracic Lymphatics is a specialized component of the lymphatic system consisting of lymphatic vessels and nodes located within the thoracic cavity that collectively facilitate the drainage of interstitial fluid and immune cell transport from thoracic and adjacent regional structures, distinguishing it from other lymphatic pathways by its anatomical confinement and functional integration within the thorax.
