"The lumbar trunks (TA: truncus lumbalis) are paired lymphatic trunks that join to form the cisterna chyli, forming an integral part of the lymphatic system. The lumbar trunks carry lymph from the infraumbilical abdominal wall, pelvis and lower limbs ^1,2. The intestinal trunk in the majority of people drains into the left lumbar trunk rather than directly into the cisterna chyli."
