The lymphatic system consists of a group of organs and tissues.
Among the organs are the lymph nodes, lymph veins, the thymus, the tonsils, the adenoids, the appendix and the spleen. These organs and tissues work to collect the excess fluid of the body and return that fluid to the blood. In addition, the lymphatic system helps the body fight against pathogens.
