Pelvic parietal (iliac) and visceral lymph nodes. Schematic diagram showing pelvic parietal lymph nodes and some examples of pelvic visceral lymph nodes. Pelvic parietal (iliac) lymph nodes are divided into three groups: external iliac nodes (including obturator nodes), internal iliac nodes (including sacral nodes) and common iliac nodes. Some examples of visceral lymph nodes which can be assessed while evaluating the pelvic sidewall are shown: parauterine, paravaginal and lateral vesical lymph nodes.
