Also a removal point for pathogens. 4.Spleen - Removal of old and broken RBC’s. Also a place for pathogenic removal by WBC’s and a hangout for B cells

8 Lymphatic System Disorders: 1.Splenomegaly – swollen spleen due to infection. Ex: Epstein-Barr virus that cause mono.

10 Lymphatic System Disorders: 2. Tonsillitis – swollen tonsils due to infection. (Tonsils are made of lymphatic tissue)

11 Lymphatic System Disorders: 3.Lymphedema – blockage of lymph vessels or nodes.

12

13 Lymphatic System Disorders: 4. Filariasis (elephantiasis) – Tropical parasitic worms invade the lymph nodes and block them.
