the findings of our study indicate that the prostate mainly drains through 3 sets of lymphatics : 1 ) the main and important set of lymphatics starts from the superolateral angle of the prostate and courses along the lateral pelvic wall to drain into the internal iliac lymph nodes , 2 ) some lymphatics drain into the lymph nodes in the presacral area and 3 ) in 45 % of the patients lymphatics from the apex of the prostate travel along the course of the internal pudendal vessels to the internal iliac lymph nodes .
