Histological and ultrastructural examination of the hypogastric ganglion in rat indicated three kinds of cells: - The principal neurons, sympathetic cells remarkable by size, distribution, nematosomes and ergastosomes, absence of synaptic vesicles. After purchasing of vacuoles they occur vacuolated neurons. - The small neurons which are not sympathoblasts. - Few S.I.F. cells containing numerous dense core vesicles. The innervation is a double one, it is afferent cholinergic type or a type with catecholamines secretion.
