Preaortic lymph nodes
The preaortic lymph nodes are part of the abdominopelvic lymph nodes. They include three main groups:
- celiac nodes
- drainage from gastric nodes, hepatic nodes and pancreaticosplenic nodes
- superior mesenteric nodes
- drainage from mesenteric nodes
- inferior mesenteric nodes
- drainage from mesenteric nodes
