That would be the lymphatic vessels. The lymphatic system is not directly tied to the main circulatory system and thus is not pumped through the body.

Lymph enters the lymph node through a series of afferent lymphatic vessels and exits the lymph node via efferent lymphatic vessels.

The reason the slow flow is desirable is that it allows time for lymphocytes and macrophages to carry out their protective functions of removing debris from lymph.


What ensures slow flow of lymph?
