THE adrenergic sympathetic system has been shown to exert a considerable effect on the intra-ocular pressure (Greaves and Perkins, 1952). We know, however, that cholinergic drugs are often effective in lowering the intraocular pressure in glaucoma so that it is possible that the parasympathetic system may also play a part in the control of the tension of the eye. Since the third cranial nerve c...

Superior gluteal nerve emerges through the greater sciatic foramen above the piriformis muscle. The nerve curves upwards and forwards between the gluteus medius and minimus muscles, supplies both of them and ends by supplying the tensor fasciae latae muscle, from its deep surface. During hip surgeries, this nerve often gets injured resulting in complications. An exact knowledge of its course is...

OBJECTIVES This study used cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images to categorize the relationships between the mandibular canal and the roots and investigated the prevalence of nerve damage. MATERIALS AND METHODS Through CBCT images, contact and three-dimensional positional relationships between the roots of the mandibular third molar and the mandibular canal were investigated. With this ...
