also, in some individuals, the lower lobe of the left lung.

Dear Wikipedia contribuitors,

receive a respectful greeting. This article reads that the right lymphatic duct drains lymph fluid from:

"... in some individuals, the lower lobe of the left lung."

Can you tell, please: 1. If this is a very uncommon exception (1%-15%) or it is quite common (16% or more). 2. If this is related to racial conditions or something like that.

Thanks in advance!

Hi George Rodney Maruri Game! As far as I know, there is only one source of questionable reliability (and no free access) stating that the left lung is drained by the right lymphatic duct. Other reliable sources I have seen do not mention the lungs at all. Sorry that I can't be of any more help. Bibeyjj (talk) 17:03, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
