[Sex, constitutional, and age characteristics of the anatomy of regional gastric lymph nodes in adult humans]. 1980

V S Revazov, and O G Tsoi

In 80 corpses of mature subjects of both sex anatomy and topography of the main groups of the gastric regional lymph nodes (cardial, left gastric, pyloric, right and left gastro-mesenteric, splenic) have been studied. It has been stated that the lymph nodes in question are greater in size in men than in women. In women an oval and round formes are noted more often than in men, while segmented and ribbon-like nodes are more characteristic for men. Certain peculiar features of the lymph nodes are connected with constitution. It has been stated that number and size of the gastric regional lymph nodes are more variable in mesomorphic subjects. For brachymorphic subjects a great number of oval and round middle sized lymph nodes is a characteristic feature. In dolichomorphic subjects a small number of large lymph nodes is noted most often. Age peculiarities in the anatomy of the human gastric regional lymph nodes have been revealed: in middle-aged and in old persons their number increases, while their size decreased.
