Abstract
The lymphatic drainage of the labia majora of the pudenda was studied in seven full-term fetuses subjected to injection with Gerota's stain modified by Caplan. Analysis permitted description of the lymphatic ve ssels extending to the supermedial and inferior-medial group of the ho molateral superficial inguinal lymph nodes. Lymphatic drainage was als o observed to the contralateral supermedial group of the superficial i nguinal lymph nodes.
