A variant or archaic plural form of ganglion, referring to multiple nerve clusters.
From Italian or Latin 'gangliglia,' possibly influenced by the Italian plural '-glia' pattern or a variant of the Greek 'ganglia.' This appears to be an older or less standard plural form.
Languages have plural epicycles—English settled on 'ganglia' for the plural, but older medical texts show 'gangliglia' floating around, showing how medical terminology hasn't always been standardized.
