Nerves of the torso

The celiac plexus or coeliac plexus, also known as the solar plexus because of its radiating nerve fibers, is a complex network of nerves (a nerve plexus) located in the abdomen, near where the celiac trunk, superior mesenteric artery, and renal arteries branch from the abdominal aorta.

The posterior gastric branches of posterior vagal trunk are branches of the posterior vagal trunk which supply the stomach.

The posterior vagal trunk is a branch of the vagus nerve which contributes to the esophageal plexus.

The renal branches of vagus nerve are small branches which provide parasympathetic innervation to the kidney.

The renal plexus is formed by filaments from the celiac ganglia and plexus, aorticorenal ganglia, lower thoracic splanchnic nerves and first lumbar splanchnic nerve and aortic plexus.

The ovarian plexus arises from the renal plexus, and is distributed to the ovary, and fundus of the uterus.

In human neuroanatomy, the pancreatic plexus is a division of the celiac plexus (coeliac plexus) in the abdomen.

The superior gastric plexus (gastric or coronary plexus) accompanies the left gastric artery along the lesser curvature of the stomach, and joins with branches from the left vagus nerve.

Each spinal nerve receives a branch called a gray ramus communicans (plural rami communicantes) from the adjacent paravertebral ganglion of the sympathetic trunk.

The anterior gastric branches of anterior vagal trunk are branches of the anterior vagal trunk which supply the stomach.

The anterior vagal trunk is a branch of the vagus nerve which contributes to the esophageal plexus.

The pulmonary plexus is an autonomic plexus formed from pulmonary branches of vagus nerve and the sympathetic trunk.

Ramus communicans (plural rami communicantes) is the Latin term used for a nerve which connects two other nerves, and can be translated as "communicating branch".

The inferior hypogastric plexus (pelvic plexus in some texts) is a plexus of nerves that supplies the viscera of the pelvic cavity.

The white ramus communicans (plural: rami communicantes) from Latin ramus (branch) and communicans (communicating) is the preganglionic sympathetic outflow nerve tract from the spinal cord.

The superior hypogastric plexus (in older texts, hypogastric plexus or presacral nerve) is a plexus of nerves situated on the vertebral bodies anterior to the bifurcation of the abdominal aorta.

The hepatic plexus, the largest offset from the celiac plexus, receives filaments from the left vagus and right phrenic nerves.

The celiac ganglia or coeliac ganglia are two large irregularly shaped masses of nerve tissue in the upper abdomen.

The thoracic aortic plexus is a sympathetic plexus in the region of the thoracic aorta.

The hepatic branches of anterior vagal trunk are branches of the anterior vagal trunk which supply the liver.

The celiac (or coeliac) branches of vagus nerve are small branches which provide parasympathetic innervation to the celiac plexus.

The abdominal aortic plexus (aortic plexus) is formed by branches derived, on either side, from the celiac plexus and ganglia, and receives filaments from some of the lumbar ganglia.

The cardiac plexus is a plexus of nerves situated at the base of the heart that innervates the heart.

The inferior cardiac branches (or thoracic cardiac branches) of the vagus nerve, on the right side, arise from the trunk of the vagus as it lies by the side of the trachea, and from its recurrent nerve; on the left side from the recurrent nerve only; passing inward, they end in the deep part of the cardiac plexus.

The inferior mesenteric plexus is derived chiefly from the aortic plexus.
