title: Functional morphology of blind and other processes in the lymph capillary system.
abstract: "Blind" lymph capillaries of the diaphragmatic tendon center were studied in normal rabbits and after injections of India ink, yellow cadmium, chicken erythrocyte suspensions, and whole chicken blood into the abdominal cavity. Three groups of blind capillaries differing by morphological and functional signs were distinguished. Some blind capillaries can deposit foreign particles. The process of intracapillary endothelial growth is described.
