The splenic cords of Billroth contain reticularcells,macrophages,lymphocytes,plasmacells,anderythrocytes.thesplenicsinusoidsaremodified capillaries with an exceptionally wide lumen and spaces in the wall to allow cells to squeeze in and out. Macrophages are also able to extend processes into the sinusoid, allowing them to identify senescent red bloodcells. Blood enters the spleen via the splenic artery at the hilum. The blood then travels through the trabecular arteries,centralarterioles,penicillararterioles,capillaries,splenicsinusoids,trabecularveins,andfinallyout thesplenicveinatthehilum.
