Lumbar ganglia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nerve: Lumbar ganglia

Lower half of right sympathetic cord.
Latin	Ganglia lumbalia Ganglia lumbaria

The lumbar ganglia are paravertebral ganglia. The lumbar portion of the sympathetic trunk typically has 4 lumbar ganglia. The lumbar splanchnic nerves arise from the ganglia here, and contribute sympathetic efferent fibers to the nearby plexuses. The first two lumbar ganglia have both white and gray rami communicantes.
