Anatomy of the peripheral nervous system
Abstract
This article is an overview of the structure and components of the peripheral nervous system. The fine structure and gross anatomy of peripheral nerves and ganglia are described. A functional and regional approach is used to highlight principles on which the peripheral nervous system is designed. Finally, the somatic and autonomic nervous systems are contrasted to underscore similarities between the two systems.
