The inferior deep cervical lymph nodes are one of the two groups of the deep cervical lymph nodes (the other being the superior deep cervical lymph nodes).[1]
They are situated partial deep to the
supraclavicular triangle - beyond the posterior margin of the sternocleidomastoid muscle[2]
).
Some superior deep cervical lymph nodes drain to the inferior deep cervical lymph nodes. The inferior deep cervical lymph nodes drain to the jugular lymph trunk.[1]
