Ganglia of the cervical part of the sympathetic trunk in the white rat. Sources of blood supply and angioarchitectonics.
Each ganglion of the cervical part of the sympathetic trunk in white rat is supplied by several arteries of diameter of 15--30 micrometers. The arteries arise from three sources: 1) large vessels adjacent to the ganglia, 2) vascular net of connective and muscular tissues surrounding the ganglion, 3) vessels of nerves and interganglionic rami. The vascular network of the cervical sympathetic ganglia was connected with the vascular plexus of the vagus nerve and cervical as well as brachial plexuses.
