Intussusceptive lymphangiogenesis in the sinuses of developing human foetal lymph nodes.

In conclusion, intussusception participates in the formation of the meshwork of processes in LN sinuses during LN development. This mechanism is also of interest because it contributes to the general knowledge of intussusceptive lymphangiogenesis (which has received less attention than intussusception in blood vessels), provides a basis for further studies and supports a new role for vessel intussusception (formation of an intraluminal meshwork with known action in fluid filtering, cell interactions and immunology).
