organ of the lymphatic system
Lymph nodes are small organs that are part of your body's lymphatic system, which works alongside your immune system to filter fluid and fight infections. They contain immune cells that help identify and destroy harmful invaders like bacteria and viruses, which is why they often swell when you're sick as your body battles an infection.

淋巴結(lymph node)是属于淋巴系统和适应性免疫系统的肾形器官,全身各处有大量的淋巴结,它们借由淋巴管连接。旧称淋巴腺(lymph gland),但后来发现其并无分泌物質的功能而更名。 淋巴结属于次级淋巴器官,在获得性免疫中发挥着重要作用。其功能類似過濾器,內部蜂窩狀的結構聚集了淋巴球,能夠將病毒與細菌摧毀。當身體在對抗入侵的病菌時,淋巴結內部的淋巴球會快速增殖,而淋巴結則會腫脹。人體內大部分的器官都有淋巴結,一般從外表可以觸摸到的像是在頸部、腋下,以及鼠蹊部。 人体全身有大量的淋巴结由淋巴管相互连接成网络。有包括B细胞和T细胞在内的淋巴细胞聚集于此。淋巴结在免疫系统中的具体功能是作为“异己”物质(包括肿瘤细胞)的过滤器,但是并不具有解毒的作用。 在很多病理情况下,淋巴结会变得发炎肿大。有可能是常见的,也有可能是威胁生命的恶性肿瘤。對許多惡性腫瘤病患而言,淋巴結轉移的狀況是(staging)的重要依據,决定着医生对患者的治疗手段和预后。发炎肿大的淋巴结可能是坚硬的,也可能是柔软的。
