The cavernous nerve plexus is situated below and medial to that part of the internal carotid artery which is placed by the side of the sella turcica in the cavernous sinus and is formed chiefly by the medial division of the internal carotid nerve. It communicates with the oculomotor the trochlear the ophthalmic and the abducent nerves and with the ciliary ganglion and distributes filaments to the wall of the internal carotid artery.
