Summary Introduction

To determine:

Which lymphatic structures are responsible for passing lymph from the lower limb to the bloodstream?

Introduction:

Interstitial fluid is stored in between the interstitial spaces of the tissues. The excess interstitial fluid from the body, which when enters the lymphatic system is known as lymph. The removal of interstitial fluid is important in order to avoid accumulation of the fluid at the interstitial spaces.

Removal of interstitial fluid is carried out by the lymphatic system. It takes up interstitial fluid from different regions of the body and then, following a pathway, is transported back to the bloodstream.
