The anatomy and histology of the carotid sinus is then demonstrated on the living animal and by diagram. This is followed by a similar series of demonstrations showing the anatomy of the aortic arch, the carotid sinus nerve and its embriological development, the aortic nerve and the histology of the carotid sinus nerve.
