Multiple schwannomas in the peripheral nerves.
Multiple tumours of peripheral nerves are often seen in patients with neurofibromatosis of type 1 or 2. Multiple schwannomas may occur without other manifestations of neurofibromatosis. We have reviewed 12 patients with multiple schwannomas arising from peripheral lesions who did not fulfil the criteria for either type of neurofibromatosis. Four had spinal and one an intracranial lesion in addi...
متن کاملSchwannoma originating from lower cranial nerves: report of 4 cases.
Four cases of schwannoma originating from the lower cranial nerves are presented. Case 1 is a schwannoma of the vagus nerve in the parapharyngeal space. The operation was performed by the transcervical approach. Although the tumor capsule was not dissected from the vagus nerve, hoarseness and dysphagia happened transiently after the operation. Case 2 is a schwannoma in the jugular foramen. The ...
متن کاملChromogranins in sympathetic nerves.
In post-ganglionic sympathetic neurons, biochemical and electron-microscopical evidence indicate that noradrenaline is stored within granules which, although smaller, resemble adrenal medullary chromaffin granules in some respects. This resemblance between neuronal and adrenal medullary granules has been extended by immunological and enzymic investigations which show that sympathetic nerve gran...
متن کاملSympathetic Nerves and Myocyte Necrosis
The left ventricle is richly supplied with sympathetic nerves, which are spatially localized next to cardiac myocytes in a fashion that permits the rapid transmission of autonomic signals via the release of norepinephrine. Previous investigation in the heart has largely focused on the local release and reuptake kinetics of norepinephrine in conjunction with its downstream receptor-mediated even...
متن کاملPositional Relationship between Natural Killer Cells and Distribution of Sympathetic Nerves in Decidualized Mouse Uterus
Background: Uterine natural killer (uNK) cells are the most abundant leukocytes in pre-implantation endometrium and early pregnancy deciduas in humans and rodents. They are associated with structural changes in maternal spiral arteries but regulation of their re-cruitment and activation is incompletely understood. The major subpopulation of uNK cells in humans expresses CD56, the neural cell ad...
