Head Lymphatics: A Fresh Approach to a Challenging Area (Case Study‪)‬

Introduction The anatomy and physiology of head lymphatics and their effects on congestion occurring in areas distal to the head are not yet fully understood. Research indicates a major factor involved is the link between cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) and the lymphatic system. The most important pathway for absorption of CSF is via lymphatics in the olfactory tract, cribiform plate and cervical lymphatic vessels(1).
