The topographical, ultrastructural, and histochemical features of 23 human vagal paraganglia were analyzed. Nineteen of the 23 paraganglia were found in previously unreported sites; 18 of the 19 were in the cervical part of the nerve, between the carotid bifurcation and the superior thoraco-cervical inlet, and one paraganglion was located in the retrothyroidal part of the left inferior laryngeal nerve. The results of ultrastructural studies (2 cases), the histochemical and formaldehyde-induced-fluorescence studies (3 cases), and specific acetylcholinesterase activity (one case) demonstrate that these structures fulfill many of the modern criteria for paraganglionic tissue. In addition to paraganglia, single, isolated neurons or true micro-ganglia were always found along the trunk and branches of the vagus nerve when multiple sections were examined.
分析了23个人类迷走神经副神经节的形态、超微结构和组织化学特征。23个副神经节中有19个位于先前未报告的部位；19个中的18个位于神经的颈部，在颈动脉分叉和胸颈上入口之间，1个副神经节位于左喉返神经的甲状腺后部分。超微结构研究（2例）、组织化学和甲醛诱导荧光研究（3例）以及特异性乙酰胆碱酯酶活性（1例）的结果表明，这些结构符合副神经节组织的许多现代标准。除了副神经节，当检查多个切片时，在迷走神经的主干和分支上总是能发现单个、孤立的神经元或真正的微神经节。
