The distribution of lymph vessels in the human testis was investigated using ink injection methods, light and electron microscopy. Lymph capillaries occur in the septula testis but are absent in the intertubular tissue. They consist of endothelial cells provided with an incomplete basal lamina and bound by anchoring filaments to the adjacent connective tissue. Frequently, the endothelial cells are separated by gaps (measuring up to 2 microns). The lymph capillaries of the septula testis are connected to lymph vessels in the rete testis and tunica albuginea. These vessels have occasional smooth muscle cells and valves. At the posterior margin of the testis, the network of lymphatics merges into collecting ducts that together with vessels derived from the rete testis are drained by lymphatics in the spermatic cord.
采用墨水注射法、光镜和电镜对人睾丸内淋巴管的分布进行了研究。淋巴毛细管见于睾丸小隔，但在曲细精管间组织中不存在。它们由内皮细胞构成，内皮细胞有不完整的基膜，并通过锚定丝与相邻的结缔组织相连。内皮细胞常被间隙（可达2微米）分隔。睾丸小隔的淋巴毛细管与睾丸网和白膜中的淋巴管相连。这些血管偶尔有平滑肌细胞和瓣膜。在睾丸后缘，淋巴管网汇入集合管，集合管与来自睾丸网的血管一起由精索内的淋巴管引流。
