The macro- and microstructures of the rabbit celiac-mesenteric ganglion complex are described in 20 young animals. We found ten celiac ganglia, twenty-seven cranial mesenteric ganglia and eleven celiac-mesenteric ganglia. The celiac ganglia had a rectangular shape in nine cases (90%) and a circular one in one case (10%). The cranial mesenteric ganglia presented triangular (66.7%), rectangular (11.1%), L-shape (18.5%) and semi-lunar (3.7%) arrangements. The celiac-mesenteric ganglia were organized in three patterns: a single left celiac-mesenteric ganglion having a caudal portion (72.7%); celiac-mesenteric ganglia without a caudal portion (18.2%) and a single celiac-mesenteric ganglion with two portions: left and right (9.1%). The microstructure was investigated in nine celiac-mesenteric ganglia. The results showed that the celiac-mesenteric ganglion is actually a ganglion complex constituted of an agglomerate of ganglionic units separated by nerve fibers, capillaries and septa of connective tissue. Using the semi-thin section method we described the cellular organization of the celiac-mesenteric ganglion complex. Inside of each ganglionic unit, there were various cell types: principal ganglion neurons (PGN), glial cells (satellite cells) and SIF cells (small intensely fluorescent cells or small granular cells), which are the cytologic basis for each ganglionic unit of the rabbit's celiac-mesenteric ganglion complex.
在20只幼兔中描述了兔腹腔 - 肠系膜神经节复合体的大体和微观结构。我们发现有10个腹腔神经节、27个肠系膜上神经节和11个腹腔 - 肠系膜神经节。腹腔神经节在9例（90%）中呈长方形，1例（10%）呈圆形。肠系膜上神经节呈现出三角形（66.7%）、长方形（11.1%）、L形（18.5%）和半月形（3.7%）的排列方式。腹腔 - 肠系膜神经节有三种组织模式：单个左腹腔 - 肠系膜神经节有一个尾部（72.7%）；无尾部的腹腔 - 肠系膜神经节（18.2%）和单个有左右两部分的腹腔 - 肠系膜神经节（9.1%）。对9个腹腔 - 肠系膜神经节进行了微观结构研究。结果表明，腹腔 - 肠系膜神经节实际上是一个神经节复合体，由被神经纤维、毛细血管和结缔组织隔膜分隔的神经节单位聚集体构成。我们使用半薄切片法描述了腹腔 - 肠系膜神经节复合体的细胞组织。在每个神经节单位内部，有多种细胞类型：主要神经节神经元（PGN）、神经胶质细胞（卫星细胞）和SIF细胞（小而强荧光细胞或小颗粒细胞），这些是兔腹腔 - 肠系膜神经节复合体每个神经节单位的细胞学基础。
