Summary
A study was made of the changes occurring in the small intestine at various periods after uni — or bilateral excision of the spinal cord ganglia of the medial and inferior thoracic segments. Loss of the sensory innervation by the small intestine is accompanied by inflammation, which is limited to a destructive phase, and by dedifferentiation of the tissue elements. Reticular cells are transformed into cells of the plasmatic type.
