Lymph exits the node at its hilum, the indented region on the concave side, via efferent lymphatic vessels.
A fatty hilum is a region of connective tissue within a lymph node that contains an accumulation of fat. It is a normal part of lymph node anatomy and serves to provide support and structure to the lymph node.

A lymph node.
A reactive lymph node is the same as an enlarged lymph node. Lymph nodes can become enlarged for a variety of reasons, most of which aren't serious. The ICD code for a reactive lymph node is 785.6.
A paraaortic prominent lymph node is a lymph node more noticable than the others and found near the aorta.
The difference between incision and excision of lymph nodes is very simple. The incision of a lymph node is when the biopsy only takes part of the lymph node during surgery. The excision of the lymph node is when the whole lymph node is removed.
A sentinel lymph node is the first lymph node that drains a cancer. If a cancer has not spread to the first draining lymph node near a cancer, there is a high likelihood it has not spread elsewhere.
