Variations of Thoracic Splanchnic Nerves and its Clinical Implications Variaciones de los Nervios Esplácnicos Torácicos y sus Implicancias Clínicas *Tony George Jacob; ** Surbhi Wadhwa; ***Shipra Paul & ****Srijit Das JACOB, G. T.; WADHWA, S.; PAUL, S. & DAS, S. Variations of thoracic splanchnic nerves and its clinical implications. Int. J. Morphol., 23(3):247-251, 2005. SUMMARY:The present study reports an anomalous branching pattern of the thoracic sympathetic chain. At the level of T3 ganglion, an anomalous branch i.e accessory sympathetic chain (ASC) descended anteromedial to the main sympathetic chain (MSC). The MSC and the ASC communicated with each other at the level of T9, T10 and T11 ganglion, indicating the absence of classical pattern of greater, lesser and least splanchnic nerves on the right side. However, on the left side, the sympathetic chain displayed normal branching pattern. We opine that the ASC may be representing a higher origin of greater splanchnic nerve at the level of T3 ganglion and the branches from MSC at T9, T10 and T11 ganglion may be the lesser and least splanchnic nerves, which further joined the ASC (i.e presumably the greater splanchnic nerve) to form a common trunk. This common trunk pierced the right crus of diaphragm to reach the right suprarenal plexus after giving few branches to the celiac plexus. Awareness and knowledge of such anatomical variants of thoracic sympathetic chain may be helpful to surgeons in avoiding any incomplete denervation or preventing any inadvertent injury during thoracic sympathectomy. KEY WORDS: Splanchnic nerves; Sympathetic chain; Trunk thoracic; Ganglion.

    St. Lawrence School Subject - Science Class - 4 Chapter - 3 Human Body : Digestive and Excetory System ( Part - 1 ) Learn about * Digestive system * Excretory system * Healthy eating habits Digestive System The process by which food is broken down into a simpler form so that it can be easily taken in or absorbed by our body is called digestion. Many organs work together and help in the process of digestion. The mouth, food pipe, stomach, small and large intestine, liver, rectum, and anus are the main organs of the digestive system. Let us learn about them. Mouth Digestion starts in the mouth. The teeth help to break down and chew food. The chewed food then mixes with a liquid, called saliva, produced in our mouth. It makes the food softer and easier to swallow. The tongue helps in the proper mixing of saliva with the food. Food pipe The food pipe ( oesophagus ) passes the food from the mouth to the stomach. Stomach Inside the stomach, the food is broken down further into smaller pieces by churning and with the help of chemicals called digestive juices. Small intestine From the small intestine, the undigested food passes into the large intestine. The large intestine is a shorter but wider, tube - like structure, which collects the indigestible food from the small intestine. The large intestine absorbs water from this undigested food and forms waste products called faeces. Rectum Rectum is the final part of the large intestine. Faeces are stored in the rectum for a short time before being passed out through anus. Anus Faeces are removed from the body through the anus.

  • Urinary Bladder – Proteinaceous Plug
    Urinary bladder – Proteinaceous Plug Figure Legend: Figure 1 An eosinophilic amorphous proteinaceous plug in the bladder lumen from a male B6C3F1 mouse in a chronic study. Figure 2 A proteinaceous plug associated with other flocculent, eosinophilic material, from a male F344/N rat in an acute study. Comment: Proteinaceous plugs are commonly noted as a postmortem change resulting from an agonal secretion of accessory sex gland fluids during euthanasia. Proteinaceous plugs vary in size but can be large, filling the urinary bladder (Figure 1 and Figure 2). Microscopically, the plug is composed of a mixture of an amorphous eosinophilic material, sometimes containing desquamated epithelial cells and spermatozoa. Proteinaceous plugs by themselves have no toxicologic importance and are not precursors of calculi. Plugs may be seen with obstructive syndromes associated with bacterial inflammation. They must be differentiated from calculi. Recommendation: Proteinaceous plugs occurring alone and not associated with any pathologic lesions should be recognized as an artifact and should not be diagnosed. Occasionally, proteinaceous plugs are recognized grossly, and the pathologist should use his or her judgment to correlate the gross lesion to an artifactual proteinaceous plug. 1 Urinary bladder – Proteinaceous Plug References: Gaillard ET. 1999.

  • The Peripheral Nervous System
    The Peripheral Nervous System Dr. Ali Ebneshahidi Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) – Consists of 12 pairs of cranial nerves and 31 pairs of spinal nerves. – Serves as a critical link between the body and the central nervous system. – peripheral nerves contain an outermost layer of fibrous connective tissue called epineurium which surrounds a thinner layer of fibrous connective tissue called perineurium (surrounds the bundles of nerve or fascicles). Individual nerve fibers within the nerve are surrounded by loose connective tissue called endoneurium. Cranial Nerves Cranial nerves are direct extensions of the brain. Only Nerve I (olfactory) originates from the cerebrum, the remaining 11 pairs originate from the brain stem. Nerve I (Olfactory)- for the sense of smell (sensory). Nerve II (Optic)- for the sense of vision (sensory). Nerve III (Oculomotor)- for controlling muscles and accessory structures of the eyes ( primarily motor). Nerve IV (Trochlear)- for controlling muscles of the eyes (primarily motor). Nerve V (Trigeminal)- for controlling muscles of the eyes, upper and lower jaws and tear glands (mixed). Nerve VI (Abducens)- for controlling muscles that move the eye (primarily motor). Nerve VII (Facial) – for the sense of taste and controlling facial muscles, tear glands and salivary glands (mixed). Nerve VIII (Vestibulocochlear)- for the senses of hearing and equilibrium (sensory). Nerve IX (Glossopharyngeal)- for controlling muscles in the pharynx and to control salivary glands (mixed). Nerve X (Vagus)- for controlling muscles used in speech, swallowing, and the digestive tract, and controls cardiac and smooth muscles (mixed). Nerve XI (Accessory)- for controlling muscles of soft palate, pharynx and larynx (primarily motor). Nerve XII (Hypoglossal) for controlling muscles that move the tongue ( primarily motor).

  • The Urinary Tract and How It Works
    The Urinary Tract and How It Works National Kidney and Urologic Diseases Information Clearinghouse What is the urinary tract and how does it work? The urinary tract is the body’s drainage system for removing urine, which is composed of wastes and extra fluid. In order for normal urination to occur, all body parts in the urinary tract need to work together in the correct order. Kidneys Kidneys. The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs, each about the size of a fist. They are located just below the rib cage, one on each side of the spine. Every day, the kidneys filter about 120 to 150 quarts of blood to produce about 1 to 2 quarts of urine. The kidneys work around the clock; a person does not control what they do. Ureters Ureters. Ureters are the thin tubes of muscle—one on each side of the bladder— Bladder that carry urine from each of the kidneys to Urethra the bladder. Bladder. The bladder, located in the pelvis The urinary tract between the pelvic bones, is a hollow, muscular, balloon-shaped organ that expands as it fills with urine. Although a urination. The bladder stores urine until person does not control kidney function, the person finds an appropriate time and a person does control when the bladder place to urinate. A normal bladder acts empties. Bladder emptying is known as like a reservoir and can hold 1.5 to 2 cups of urine. How often a person needs to urinate depends on how quickly the kidneys Why is the urinary tract produce the urine that fills the bladder.
