Ganglia formation of the peripheral nervous system.
Embryologic studies have shown that the ganglions of the peripheral nervous system are formed by the neuroblasts from the central nervous system. The histotopography of the neurons and their segmental communications with the central nervous system are established experimentally (segmental section of the ventral roots and resection of the spinal nodes: 100 experiments). It is proved that the neurons, which communicate with the definite segment of the spinal cord, are diffusely distributed in the ganglion mass.
