There are lymph nodes throughout the human body. Lymph nodes range in size from being as small as the head of a pin to the size of an olive. There are groups of lymph nodes which can normally be felt in the groin, underarms, and neck.
The pectoral lymph nodes are also known as the anterior group and can be found just inferior to the pectoralis minor muscle, the cephalic nodes are also known as deltopectoral lymph nodes and they receive lymph from the superficial vessels only
Large clusters of lymph nodes occur near the body surface in the inguinal, axillary, and cervical regions.
What: The inguinal triangle, also called Hesselbach’s Triangle after Franz Caspar Hesselbach who first described the region, is a triangular region of potential weakness located on the inferoanterior (lower front) abdominal wall.Importance: The inguinal triangle is used to define inguinal hernias, as the triangle contains the medial inguinal fossa, a depression through which inguinal hernias bulge through the abdominal wall.Location: its medial border is formed the Rectus abdominis; the lateral border by the Inferior epigastric vessels; and the inferior border by the inguinal ligament (also called the Poupart’s ligament). The borders can easily be remembered using the mnemonic RIP.Contents: Structures that lay within the triangle include the Lacunar and Cooper’s ligaments as well as the Ductus deferens.

A needle is used to withdraw fluid from lymph nodes located near the growth, to make sure the cancer has not spread to these nodes.

femoral triangle is a triangular depression in front of the thigh. boundaries: medial border- medial border of the adductor longus muscle. lateral border- medial border of the sartorius muscle. base - inguinal ligament. apex- sartorius overlapping the adductor longus muscle. apex lies 10cm below the inguinal ligament. roof - skin, superficial fascia, superficial inguinal lymph nodes, superficial veins, fascia lata. floor- lateral to medial side, the floor is formed by the muscles namely illiacus, psoas major, pectineus, adductor longus.
