Detailed explanation-1: -The lymphatic system is an endothelium-lined network of blind-ended capillaries found in nearly all tissues, draining via collecting vessels into large vascular trunks that eventually empty via an evolutionarily conserved drainage point into the blood circulatory system.
Detailed explanation-2: -Lymphatic ducts are the largest lymphatic vessels. These two ducts drain lymph into veins in the neck (the right and left subclavian veins at their junctures with the internal jugular veins). Valves in the lymphatic ducts at their junctures with the veins prevent the entrance of blood into the lymphatic vessels.
Detailed explanation-3: -Efferent lymphatic vessel anastomosis was performed under local anesthesia at the groin region, and an efferent lymphatic vessel of the inguinal LN is anastomosed to a recipient vein.
