  • Description                                                                         
    • * The sympathetic trunks lie on each side of the vertebral column, extending from the base of the skull to the coccyx where the two chains fuse together.
    • * Each trunk contains a number of sympathetic ganglia, the thoracic region having about 11 ganglia which lie on the neck of the ribs.
    • * The ganglia are closely related to the intercostal nerves from which they receive preganglionic fibres as white rami communicantes.
    • * The postganglionic fibres from the ganglia go back to the intercostal nerves as grey rami communicantes.
    • * Gives rise to cardiac, pulmonary, mediastinal, and splanchnic branches.
