Lymph nodes of the head and neck are arranged in superficial and deep groups. Superficial nodes include submental, submandibular, parotid, mastoid, and occipital nodes, which drain specific regions of the scalp and face. Deep cervical nodes lie along the internal jugular vein and receive lymph from most of the head and neck. Enlargement of these nodes can signal infection, inflammation, or malignancy.
