| Research Abstract |
The lymphatic architecture in human head and neck regions was studied the relationship with regional lymph node, but not studied about each organs. Therefore, the route between the periphery to the regional lymph node and the connection between the regional lymph nodes were only inferenced. We have studied the lymphatic architecture of each organ in head and neck regions by three-dimensional reconstruction method of serial sections. In this project, we could concern the lymphatic architecture in normal tongue, the dynamics of lymphatic architecture of growth of cancer, and dynamic changes after administration of anti-angiogenic agent. We analogized the metastasis to the regional lymph node starts at the initial lymphatics.
