An anatomical model in wax of the right sympathetic nervous model was mounted on a real skeleton with the osseous elements in connection. It was photographed in rotation every 5 degree on 360 degree in its whole and on its three main, vertical, stages in order to get a 3‐dimensional numerical reconstruction and to deliver it freely on the net for every interested public. The attentive observation of the sample allowed to appreciate its anatomical veracity which was excellent. A numerical D‐40 Nikon camera was used and a rotational device made of two thick, circular, identical marble disks assembled by a ball‐bearing. The upper disk was graduated on its periphery. The sample belonged to the Spitzner collection from the Orfila's museum (Paris), closed and evacuated in december 2009. Its number was N° 1232 (Surgical and Radiological Anatomy catalog, 1995, supp. 1).
