Microvessel of the lymphatic system lined with a single layer of overlapping endothelial cells. Joins to form the lymphatic vessels. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the lymphatic capillary is

Microvessel of the lymphatic system lined with a single layer of overlapping endothelial cells. Joins to form the lymphatic vessels. The atlas records it as a lymphatic at the organ scale in the dog.

Where the lymphatic capillary is

It sits within the cardiovascular and lymphatic & immune systems. Only the system is known. The position shown carries almost no spatial information.

What the lymphatic capillary connects to

The atlas records 4 typed relationships for it, across 2 kinds of connection. part of lymph vasculature and vasculature.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the lymphatic capillary. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.
