1 Since the lymphatic system does not have a heart to pump it, its upward movement depends on the motions of the muscle and joint pumps. 2  As it moves upward toward the neck the lymph passes through lymph nodes which filter it to remove debris and pathogens. Lymph nodes also trap and destroy cancer cells to slow the spread of the cancer until they are overwhelmed by it. 2  Efferent lymphatic vessels carry the filtered lymph out of the node so that it can continue its return to the circulatory system.
Lymph nodes are tiny, bean-shaped organs that filter lymph fluid. They are located throughout the body, but particular collections are found just under the skin in the neck, under the arms, and in the groin area. Lymph nodes are part of the lymphatic system, which is one of the body's defense mechanisms against the spread of infection and cancer. Lymph is clear fluid that is made up of water, white blood cells, proteins, and fats that have filtered out of blood vessels into the spaces between cells.
