title: [Roentgeno-anatomical study of inguinal, pelvic and lumbar lymph nodes].
abstract: Clinical anatomy of the inguinal, pelvic and lumbar lymph nodes was studied in 89 autopsies on adult males. The data on the life-time lymphographic and post mortem examination of the lymph nodes were compared. It was demonstrated that the retroperitoneal lymph nodes in an adult male include 4-20 right-side, 8-16 left-side external and common iliac, 3-13 right-side lumbar, 3-29 left-side and 0-8 intermediate lumbar nodes. It is important that the skeleton-related topography and number of lymph nodes, and the relationship between these parameters and age should be taken into account in making primary and differential diagnosis of various relevant lesions.
