Annotation:

At the current stage of the development of morphology and clinical medicine, the interest in vegetative nodes, which are complex peripheral nerve centers connected to the central nervous system and are trophic and communication and distribution centers, does not decrease. In this regard, it becomes clear that without the doctor's knowledge of the features of the topography and individual structure of the submandibular node (SMN) and its connections with neighboring nerves, it is not possible to provide significant help in understanding the pathogenesis and clinical manifestations of diseases of the node, developing new ones and optimizing already existing methods of treatment. Before starting the main part of our study, we determined the shape of the head (skull) and face – head and face indices. In the future, we used anatomical preparation of the SMN after cosmetic access to it. The sizes of the node were measured using a millimeter ruler. Photography of the prepared SMN was carried out using a digital camera. Based on the results of the research, we determined the main topographical positions of the SMN; revealed variants of the external structure of SMNs by frequency of occurrence and their sizes; the extreme types of the structure of the SMNs are established and it is shown in which forms of the head and face they occur; the topography of the branched connections of the SMN – adductor roots: tympanic-lingual, sympathic and efferent roots has been clarified. The revealed dependence of the topographic-anatomical variability of the human SMN on the shape of the skull will help clinicians to justify the choice of the node blockade method in various pathological conditions.
