Common carotid plexus
The
carotid plexus
is a network of intersecting
sympathetic nerves
which run parallel to the
carotid artery
into the head. They branch out from the
superior cervical ganglia
of the sympathetic chain. The
lesser petrosal nerve
receives sympathetic innervation from the carotid plexus along with
parasympathetics
from the
glossopharyngeal nerve
(CN IX).
