title: [Lymphangion development in human fetuses].
abstract: In human fetuses lymphangion development is a combined process of morpho- and histogenesis guided by lymph flow. Its peculiarities determine unevenness of growth and differentiation of lymphatic vessels in longitudinal and circular orientation, successive formation of valves, muscular cuffs and tensors and muscular coat between external and subendothelial layers.
