The lateral aortic lymph nodes are a set of lymph nodes (small round organs of the immune system) in the human body. They are connected to other lymph nodes through lymphatics a network of vessels that filter the body’s lymph fluid and return it into the blood. Lymph nodes contain large numbers of white blood cells and can become enlarged when they are readying to defend the body against infection.
