Canalization of the jugular lymphatic sac is accompanied with disengagement from the blood stream of the thoracic subcardinal and the thoracic parts of the superior mesocardinal veins, forming the paired thoracic anlage of the thoracic duct (ThD). Canalization of the retroperitoneal lymphatic sac (RLS) is combined with differentiation of the antevertebral plexus of the abdominal veins, formation of the ThD cistern. Lateroaortal, retrocaval and retroaortal lumbar trunks (LT) become its roots. Together with RLS and the ThD cistern they form the lymphatic "muff" around the abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava. The degree of its parts separation and its substitution by collaterals of LT and by lymph nodes determines the variants of the definitive organization of the ThD initial part. Already at the stage of anlage the intestinal trunk is not included in the ThD root system, but serves as the RLS anterior tributary, or its lumbar, preaortic tributary.
颈淋巴囊的管道化伴随着胸主静脉和上主静脉胸段与血流分离，形成胸导管（ThD）的双侧胸部原基。腹膜后淋巴囊（RLS）的管道化与腹静脉椎前丛的分化相结合，形成胸导管池。外侧主动脉、腔静脉后和主动脉后腰干（LT）成为其根部。它们与RLS和胸导管池一起在腹主动脉和下腔静脉周围形成淋巴“套”。其各部分的分离程度以及被LT的侧支和淋巴结替代的情况决定了胸导管起始部最终组织的变异。在原基阶段，肠干就不包括在胸导管根系中，而是作为RLS的前支或其腰部、主动脉前支。
