Anatomy of lymphangions (valve segments) has been studied in 120 human and animal cadavers. Methods of investigation were: polychrome injection of arteries, veins and lymphatic bed; macro-microscopic preparation; staining of histopreparations after van Gieson, hematoxylin-eosin, complex technique after A.V. Borisov (1973); impregnation after V.V. Kuprianov (1965); detection of bundle collagene fibers after Mallory and elastic fibers after Weighert. The data collected on the lymphangions demonstrate that the valve segments (lymphangions) in the small intestinal wall appear in phylogenesis at first in birds. Avian lymphangions are cylindric and the valves are of semilunar form and the distance between them is 2--3 cm. In predators (dog, cat, fox, marten) lymphangions are round or conical. Their size is within 6--8 mm. In other animals (rodents, Artiodactyla, Perissodactyla) the lymphangions are 3--5 times longer comparing their width. In human ontogenesis the valve segments of the lymph vessels are formed in tela submucosa of the small intestine in 6--7-month-old fetuses. Some other peculiarities in animal and human anatomy of lymphangions have been revealed.
已对120具人类和动物尸体的淋巴管（瓣膜段）进行了解剖学研究。研究方法包括：对动脉、静脉和淋巴床进行多色注射；宏观-微观标本制作；采用范吉森染色法、苏木精-伊红染色法、A.V. 鲍里索夫（1973年）的复合技术对组织标本进行染色；采用V.V. 库普里亚诺夫（1965年）的浸渗法；采用马洛里法检测束状胶原纤维，采用魏格特法检测弹性纤维。收集到的有关淋巴管的资料表明，小肠壁中的瓣膜段（淋巴管）在系统发育过程中最早出现在鸟类中。鸟类的淋巴管呈圆柱形，瓣膜为半月形，它们之间的距离为2-3厘米。在食肉动物（狗、猫、狐狸、貂）中，淋巴管呈圆形或圆锥形。其大小在6-8毫米范围内。在其他动物（啮齿动物、偶蹄目动物、奇蹄目动物）中，淋巴管的长度是其宽度的3-5倍。在人类个体发育过程中，淋巴管的瓣膜段在6-7个月大的胎儿小肠黏膜下层形成。还揭示了动物和人类淋巴管解剖学中的一些其他特点。
