Changes of medium-latency SEP-components following peripheral nerve lesion
BACKGROUND Animal studies have demonstrated complex cortical reorganization following peripheral nerve lesion. Central projection fields of intact nerves supplying skin areas which border denervated skin, extended into the deafferentiated cortical representation area. As a consequence of nerve lesions and subsequent reorganization an increase of the somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) was ob...
متن کاملMedian nerve SEP after a high medullary lesion. Preserved N18 and absent P14 components. Case report.
Median nerve SEPs recorded from a patient with a high medullary lesion are described. The lesion involved the anteromedial and anterolateral right upper third of the medulla, as documented by MRI. Forty one days after the lesion, left median nerve SEP showed preserved N18 and absent P14 and N20 components; stimulation of the right median nerve evoked normal responses. These findings agree with ...
متن کاملDipole source analyses of early median nerve SEP components obtained from subdural grid recordings.
The median nerve N20 and P22 SEP components constitute the initial response of the primary somatosensory cortex to somatosensory stimulation of the upper extremity. Knowledge of the underlying generators is important both for basic understanding of the initial sequence of cortical activation and to identify landmarks for eloquent areas to spare in resection planning of cortex in epilepsy surger...
متن کاملMyoclonus following a Peripheral Nerve Block
Myoclonus is an extremely rare perioperative complication following neuraxial anesthesia. It has also been reported to occur due to peripheral nerve lesions. We report a case of self-limiting myoclonus following a routine peripheral nerve block in an otherwise healthy patient.
متن کاملStructural brain changes following peripheral vestibulo-cochlear lesion may indicate multisensory compensation.
BACKGROUND Do central mechanisms account for the variability of clinical recovery following peripheral vestibulo-cochlear lesions? OBJECTIVE To investigate structural (morphological) plasticity in the human brain following unilateral vestibulo-cochlear lesions which might contribute to central vestibular compensation. METHODS The authors compared regional grey matter volume (GMV) changes in...
