What is the Structure of lymph node?
Lymph nodes are bean-shaped swellings that are found along the length of lymph vessels, forming clusters in the neck, armpit and groin areas. The lymph node is surrounded by a fibrous capsule, and each node is filled with a mes-like tissue (trabeculae), which slows the flow of lymph and supports the white blood cells and destroy pathogens. The nodes also contain lymphocyte nodules that are surrounded by sinuses. The node can be divided into an outer cortex and inner medulla. During infection, you may notice that the lymph nodes swell and become painful.

What is the significance of sentinel lymph node?
