The Chromaphil Bodies of the Sympathetic Plexuses.âFrom seven to seventy masses of chromaphil tissue are developed in relation to the abdominal sympathetic plexuses independently of the ganglia and in addition to the paraganglia. Of these, the most important are the two aortic bodies, which lie one on either side of the aorta in the region of the origin of the inferior mesenteric artery. In the new-born child they are smooth brownish structures, 8-11 mm. in length, not infrequently united by an isthmus superiorly (Zuckerkandl). They degenerate as life advances, ceasing to be visible soon after puberty, but remaining discoverable, microscopically, until about the age of Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations m
