Sacral splanchnic nerves

Index Sacral splanchnic nerves

Sacral splanchnic nerves are splanchnic nerves that connect the inferior hypogastric plexus to the sympathetic trunk in the pelvis. [1]

11 relations: Abdominal aortic plexus, Anal canal, Inferior hypogastric plexus, Inferior mesenteric plexus, Nerve, Pelvic splanchnic nerves, Sacral ganglia, Spinal nerve, Splanchnic nerves, Superior hypogastric plexus, Sympathetic trunk.

Abdominal aortic plexus

The abdominal aortic plexus (not to be confused with the thoracic aortic plexus) is formed by branches derived, on either side, from the celiac plexus and ganglia, and receives filaments from some of the lumbar ganglia.

Anal canal

The anal canal is the terminal part of the large intestine.

Inferior hypogastric plexus

The inferior hypogastric plexus (pelvic plexus in some texts) is a plexus of nerves that supplies the viscera of the pelvic cavity.

Inferior mesenteric plexus

The inferior mesenteric plexus is derived chiefly from the aortic plexus.

Nerve

A nerve is an enclosed, cable-like bundle of axons (nerve fibers, the long and slender projections of neurons) in the peripheral nervous system.

Pelvic splanchnic nerves

Pelvic splanchnic nerves or nervi erigentes are splanchnic nerves that arise from sacral spinal nerves S2, S3, S4 to provide parasympathetic innervation to the hindgut.

Sacral ganglia

The sacral ganglia are paravertebral ganglia of the sympathetic trunk.

Spinal nerve

A spinal nerve is a mixed nerve, which carries motor, sensory, and autonomic signals between the spinal cord and the body.

Splanchnic nerves

The splanchnic nerves are paired visceral nerves (nerves that contribute to the innervation of the internal organs), carrying fibers of the autonomic nervous system (visceral efferent fibers) as well as sensory fibers from the organs (visceral afferent fibers).

Superior hypogastric plexus

The superior hypogastric plexus (in older texts, hypogastric plexus or presacral nerve) is a plexus of nerves situated on the vertebral bodies anterior to the bifurcation of the abdominal aorta.

Sympathetic trunk

The sympathetic trunks (sympathetic chain, gangliated cord) are a paired bundle of nerve fibers that run from the base of the skull to the coccyx.
