Enteric neurons are grouped into small ganglia, which are connected by bundles of nerve fibers to form two ganglionated plexuses: the myenteric plexus (also called the Auerbach's plexus ...

The ENS is a dense network of nerve connections that are concentrated in two main plexuses including the myenteric plexus (Auerbach’s plexus-AP) and submucous plexus (Meissner’s plexus-MP).

Their axons and neuronal cell bodies coalesce with enteric glia as ganglia within the plexus and interganglionic fibre tracts of varying nerve density. The myenteric, or Auerbach's plexus ...
