Within the facial lymphotomes, fluid (lymph) flows through the lymphatic vessels in specific directions. They're small enough to migrate rapidly through lymphatic vessels, mimicking how cancer cells might spread from a tumor to lymph nodes, yet large enough to stay inside the vessels and nodes. Until the late 1990s, little was known about the growth of lymphatic vessels but with the discovery of two protein growth factors known as VEGF-C and VEGF-D, there is now hope that new lymphatics can be grown. |
