\An anatomical structure that consists of the maximal set of organ parts so connected to one another that together they constitute a self-contained unit of macroscopic anatomy, distinct both morphologically and functionally from other such units. Together with other organs, an organ constitutes an organ system or a body part. An organ is divisible into organ parts but not organs (examples: femur, biceps, liver, heart, aorta, sciatic nerve, ovary).\Lymphoid organ structure\Structure of lymph node (body structure)\Regional lymph node structure\Lymph node structure of trunk\Structure of lymph node of thorax\Mediastinal lymph node structure\Structure of superior mediastinal lymph node (body structure)
