In sketches made of the dissections, in 10 male and 10 female guinea pigs adults, the modes of origin of the phrenic roots were demonstrated to arise from the fourth to the seventh cervical nerves. Four types of origin could be distinguished. The phrenic nerve of the guinea pig has three or four roots.217-220fracervical nervediaphragmguinea pignerve rootnervous systemnonhumanperipheral nervous systemphrenic nerveanimalfemalehistologymalespinal rootAnimalEnglish AbstractFemaleGuinea PigsMalePhrenic NerveSpinal Nerve RootsEtude du nerf phrenique chez le cobaye (Cavia porcellus, L., 1756)Study of the phrenic nerve in the guinea pig (Cavia porcellus, L., 1756)ArtigoAcesso restrito2-s2.0-00209926073150094336796923
