[Somatic contacts in the superior cervical ganglion and the carotid body of the rat].

Unusual contacts could be found in the Superior Cervical Ganglion in the Carotid Corpuscle of the white rat (Wistar) close to the Classical Synapses.--Somato-somatic synapses. In the Carotid Corpuscle they have granulated vesicles and post synaptic membrane more or less differentiated.--Recurrent synapses in the Carotid Corpuscle. The cells I attachment plaques of which take part in the polarized junctions. The attention is drawn by an erosion of the membranes near the synapses.
