  • Title: [Development of the neural and tissue components of the excretory ducts of the liver, pancreas and Odd's sphincter in human embryogeny].

    Journal: Arkh Anat Gistol Embriol; 1976 Feb; 70(2):47-50. PubMed ID: 1259602.
    Abstract:
    The development of pancreatic, hepatic, cystic, common bile ducts, the Oddi's sphincter and their nervous apparatus were studied during prenatal human ontogenesis of fetuses and newborns. The process of formation of the nervous apparatus corresponds to the development of tissue structures of the ducts and the sphincter. The distinctions in the organization of nervous elements which are noted in adult humans are laid in the process of embryogenesis. These distinctions are especially pronounced in the structure of nervous plexuses and receptory endings. The nervous apparatus of the Oddi's sphincter region has a complex arrangement. This is the site of concentration of nerve nodules and receptory endings as well as abundant nervous connections between plexuses of the pancreatic head, duodenum and orifice zones of the both ducts. The receptors in nerve nodules and pericellular apparatuses on the bodies of ganglionic neurons were revealed.
