    611.89-612.89 FUNCTIONAL TOPOGRAPHY OF THE SYM- PATHETIC NERVES AND THEIR CORRE- LATIONS IN THE CAT, AS ESTABLISHED ON THE GROUND OF PHYSIOLOGICAL EXPERIMENT. By B. ONUF (ONUFROWICZ), M. D. \_Fromthe Pathological Institute of the New York State Hospitals.'] The subjoined topographical expose and diagram of the functions of the sympathetic nerve and of its chief con- nections are intended as an appendix to the monograph by Dr. Joseph Collins and myself, preceding it in this volume and bearing the title, Experimental researches on the central localization of the sympathetic with a critical review of its anatomy and physiology. The accompanying tables and the diagram refer only to the spinal division of the sympathetic; the cranial division was left out from consideration because the topography of this part as based'^on physiological experiment is still but little known. The purpose of the tables and diagram is to utilize the known physiological facts for the localization of lesions in the domain of the sympathetic nerves and their principal connections. In arranging the subject it was thought best to begin with an enumeration of the functions of each communicant ramus, then to tabulate the physiological constitution of the sympathetic cords in their principal divisions (the cer- vical, thoracic, lumbar and sacral) and finally the constitu- tion of the most important visceral nerves, such as the splanchnic, the mesenteric and the erigentes nerves. The topography given in the tables and the diagram is VOL. in—NOS. I & 2—R
