The document discusses the development of veins and lymphatics in embryos. It explains that in embryonic life, the placenta is the main oxygenation organ. It describes the three main venous systems in early embryos: the vitelline veins, umbilical veins, and cardinal veins. It provides details on the regression and incorporation of the vitelline veins into other veins like the portal vein and hepatic veins. It also discusses the fate of the umbilical and cardinal veins as the embryo develops. Finally, it briefly mentions the development of the six lymph sacs that later form lymphatic vessels and nodes.
