Summary Introduction
To review:
The effects of destruction of ciliary, pterygopalatine, and submandibular ganglia.
Introduction:
Ganglion is an ovoid structure that is composed of cell bodies of the postganglionic neuron. It is a center for interaction between motor neurons of visceral/autonomic nervous system. The sympathetic and parasympathetic ganglia are present in the autonomic nervous system and these ganglia consist of cell bodies belonging to the sympathetic and parasympathetic neurons.
