Meningeal lymphatic vessels are most abundant towards the arachnoid membrane. Overview section of dura showing that lymphatic vessels (white arrowheads) are found predominantly towards the inner membrane facing the arachnoid. We observed lymphatic vessels that (A) are close to blood vessels (asterisk), as well as (B) lymphatic vessels remote to blood vessels. In green LYVE-1 staining for visualizing of lymphatic endothelial cells, in red Lectin for endothelial blood vessels and in blue nuclear staining. In panels C and D magnification of A (patient #8) and B (patient #10), respectively
