The superior mesenteric lymph nodes may be divided into three principal groups:
* mesenteric lymph nodes
* ileocolic lymph nodes
* mesocolic lymph nodes
Afferents
The superior mesenteric glands receive afferents from the jejunum, ileum, cecum, vermiform process, and the ascending and transverse parts of the colon; their efferents pass to the preaortic glands.
