Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Chicago Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease, 1874, Vol. 1 As you have been already informed, the nervous system i divided into two parts, the cerebro-spinal and the sympathetic. The first consists of the brain and spinal cord, and the intervening parts, viz.: the medulla oblongata and pons varolii, and also the cerebral and spinal nerves. The second comprises the chain of ganglia, on either side of the spinal column, connected together by intervening cords, and giving off branches, on the one hand, to the cerebro-spinal nervous system, and, on the other hand, large numbers of branches outwardly, which weave plexuses that accompany the arteries to their final distribution, especially those which supply the viscera and glandular organs. There are several points, to which I now will direct your attention: 1. Its histological elements, and their distribution. 2. The relations which exist between this and the cerebrospinal nervous system. 3. The seat of vaso-motor centres in the brain and cord. I. Histological Elements, and their Distribution, The three elements of importance are: the nerve cells, nerve fibres, and the connective tissue. The nerve cells of the sympathetic, when compared, as a whole, with those of the cerebro-spinal nervous system, are smaller, and, as a rule, perhaps, are found with fewer poles, or "caudate processes." They are often, to say the least, bipolar. They are simpler than those of the brain and spinal cord. They are found chiefly in the ganglia of the sympathetic, to the formation of which they largely contribute. But they are found elsewhere. Small ganglia are found in organs like the uterus and heart, especially the latter. Concerning the ganglia found in the substance of the heart, I will speak to you at another time. Small ganglia, or even single nerve cells, have been found in many glandular organs, on the walls of the muscular vessels, and beneath the mucous membrane of the alimentary canal, in which latter part a very fine rete, or network, of cells exists. Doubtless, small ganglia exist in many other parts of the body, so that various organs may have, to a certain extent, a self-contained nervous supply, in case of accident to the more central and remoter parts of the nervous system.
