Study of innervation of the pancreatic duct of Lepus europaeus, using the cholinesterase technique.
The innervation of the pancreatic duct was studied in the European Hare (Lepus europaeus) by the cholinesterase technique. The duct was accompanied by thick myelinated and thin non-myelinated nerve fibres, which subsequently formed a plexi. The plexi were associated with the fibres of the plexi of the islet of Langerhans, or with ganglia, blood vessels or neural networks. No chain of ganglia was observed on or near the duct and the ductules.
