BRANCHES TO THE VAGUS 
A constant communication is found with the nodose ganglion 
of the vagus (2) or with the superior laryngeal branch of the 
vagus (3) just after it has left the ganglion. The most frequent 
arrangement is found in a very small and short twig which 
passes laterally from the middle part or from the superior pole 
of the superior cervical ganglion to the nodose ganglion. In
