Info

Lymphatic System The thoracic duct empties about 100 ml of lymph every hour into the left subclavian vein. The lymph in the right side of the head, neck, and chest is collected by the right lymph duct and empties into the right subclavian vein.
Lymphatic System and Edema The production of lymph is increased by increased blood pressure in the capillaries and/or a decreased concentration of plasma proteins—such as occurs in prolonged malnutrition. The lymphatic system may be unable to handle the increased volume of lymph, and it may accumulate in the tissues and distend them. This condition is known as edema.
