Interfissural lymph nodes are small lymph nodes located in the fissures of the lungs, specifically between the lobes. They play a role in the drainage of lymphatic fluid from lung tissues and can be involved in the immune response by filtering pathogens and debris. These nodes are often examined during imaging studies or surgical procedures related to lung diseases, including cancer. Their status can provide important information about the spread of disease within the thoracic cavity.
