RESUMEN
The density of ganlia and nerve cells in the myenteric plexus of the last distal (12 cem. of the human esophagus was determined in six esophagi from autops y material. The density of ganglia and nerve cells in cresyl violet stained stretch preparations of twelve esophageal segments, each 1 cm. in length, were compared. The highest values were recorded in segments 4,5 and 6 cm. above the cardiac incisura. The lowest densities of ganglia and nerve cells were found in segments 1,2 and 3 cm. above the cardiac incisura. The segments contained 659-3316 perikarya/cm2; ganglia contained 3-310 cells
