1. A network formed of the efferent and afferent lymphatic vessels of the coeliac lymph nodes and related to the coeliac trunk; the afferent lymphatic vessels bring lymph primarily from structures served by the coeliac artery (stomach, duodenum, pancreas, and visceral aspect of the liver); the efferent vessels drain into the cisterna chyli/thoracic duct via the intestinal lymph trunks.
