Para-Aortic Lymph Nodes

All lymph nodes do a fantastic job - this little gang are part of a group which absorb lymph from the stomach and intestines.

Thanks for your response. Just wondering if I should be worried that on an MRI scan they mentioned seeing them. I have been struggling with absorption; stomach pains and they found 2 polyps in my stomach and 2 lesions in my uterus. When I look up these lymph nodes all the stuff I am seeing is concerning. I am not sure why the radiologist raised it in their report. GP claims to not understand all the terminology and started stuttering when she mentioned it.???
