Tlie pianglion gives off two or three filaments ?which subdivide to form the internal carotid plexus (Pl(>xns caroticiis internus) around the artery of like name. Tlic cavernous plexus (Plexus cavernosus) surromids the artery within the cavernous sinus and communicates with that of the opposite side. The external carotid plexus (Plexus caroticus externus) is formed around the homonymous artery, and filaments from it go to the vessel and its branches

The cervical part (Pars cervicalis s. sympathici) includes two ganglia and the tnmk which connects them. The anterior or superior cervical ganglion (G. cervicale craniale) lies on the guttural pouch lielow the occiiiito-atlantal articulation (Fig. 562). It is reddish- gvay in color, fusiform, and about an inch (ca. 2-3 cm.) in lenglh. It is connected by rami communicantes with the last four cranial and first cervical nerves, sends branches to form the jilexuses mentioned above, and contributes to the phaniigeal plexus. The cervical trunk of the sympathetic connects the anteiior and posterior. Fig. 660.—Right Cervico-thoracic Ganglion and Rel-\ted Structures of Horse.
