Definition[Bearbeiten]
The ovarian plexus is a nerve plexus of the autonomic nervous system that supplies the ovary. It contains vasomotor and viscerosensitive fibres from the abdominal aortic plexus.
Background[Bearbeiten]
The fibres of the ovarian plexus are switched to second, postganglionic neurons either in the aorticorenal ganglia or in the superior hypogastric plexus.[1]
