Depiction of fascia, nerves, and stomach

The relationship of the fascia, autonomic nervous system, and internal organs is extremely complex. Here the stomach is depicted with its associated fascia that penetrates into the walls lining the stomach. The nerves embedded in this fascia orchestrate the precise timing of the movement of food to different parts of the stomach as it is processed. The integrity of this timing depends on the associated fascia functioning normally. Used with permission from Antonio Stecco, MD, PhD.
