Popis: We studied the ramifications and distribution of the hypoglossal nerve after it penetrated the root of the tongue (36 antimeres) of adult swines (Sus scrofa domestica, L. 1758) from both sexes slaughtered in frigorific (metropolitan region of Goiânia, Goias - Brazil). The material was chilled for transportation (4°C); placed in aqueous solution of formaldehyde (7%) for 72 hours; submerged in aqueous solution of nitric acid (15%) for 72 hours; dissected under magnifying glass (RASOR, II-20). The trunk and the primary, secondary and tertiary nervous branches were observed in the antimeres (method of Bittencourt et al., 1987). We followed the topography of the nerve starting from the posterior mandibular region between the myofascial structures of the mylohyoid and hypoglossal. On the root of the tongue the nerve crosses the lingual artery, becoming medial in relationship to the latter. It subdivides into three orders of dimension towards the superior longitudinal muscle as follows: left antimere, 4 to 13 primary branches, 4 to 21 secondary branches and 0 to 16 tertiary branches; on the right antimere, 8 to 18 primary branches, 3 to 13 secondary branches and 0 to 12 tertiary branches. In 27.59% of the analyzed antimeres, the branches of the hypoglossal nerve established joints with fibers from the lingual nerve of the correspondent antimere.
