Detailed explanation-1: -The superficial inguinal lymph nodes reside below the inguinal ligament and subdivide into the inferior, superolateral, and superomedial nodes. The superficial inguinal lymph nodes drain the anal canal(below the pectinate line), the skin below the umbilicus, lower extremity, scrotum, and vulva.
Detailed explanation-2: -Lymph nodes are clustered throughout the body, including the neck (cervical lymph nodes), groin (inguinal lymph nodes), and armpits (axillary lymph nodes). There are internal lymph nodes in the abdomen (mesenteric and retroperitoneal), chest cavity (mediastinal), and lower abdomen (pelvic).
Detailed explanation-3: -There are five axillary lymph node groups, namely the lateral (humeral), anterior (pectoral), posterior (subscapular), central and apical nodes. The apical nodes are the final common pathway for all of the axillary lymph nodes.
