[Senile changes in the intraorganic lymphatic bed of human facial skin].
The alterations in the intraorganic lymphatic bed of the skin of human cheeks, lips, the red edge included, were studied macro-microscopically in cleared preparations with preliminary injection taken from human corpses of either sex from 55 to 89 years of age. Considerable atrophic processes were established to take place in the lymphatic bed of the face skin after 55 years of age. The superficial lymph capillary network can not be detected completely by the age of 70. The reduction of the profound capillary network and intraorganic lymph vessels proceeds. Diverticula of various shape make their appearance on the rest of lymph capillaries and vessels, the contours of the lymph capillaries and vessels undergo considerable changes.
