The lymphatic drainage in the hind limb and pelvis region is based around six lymph nodes and lymphocenters that drain into the '''medial iliac''' and '''sacral lymph nodes'''. These are part of the iliosacral lymphocenter and is found near the termination of the aorta. They drain the pelvic organs, hindlimb and lumber trunks.

* '''Superficial inguinal lymph nodes''' - also referred to as the mammary or scrotal lymph nodes they drain the male reproductive tract and the udder. They are palpable in all domestic animals.

* '''Subiliac or prefemoral lymph nodes''' - absent in the dog and palpable in cattle and horses.
