Another fact worth noting, which may serve as a point ofdeparture for further work, is that observed by Ducceschi aftersection of the vagi and caeliac plexus, as performed on dogs underFanos directions. While on section of the vagi there is, accordingto Ducceschi, no very striking modification in the form and courseof the normal movements of the stomach, excision of the caeliacplexus, which sends branches into the stomach
