The innervation of the pelvic limbs Van cat is investigated in this research. origins nerves, innervated muscles and nerve diameters were shown a table. Five cadavers used study. pudendal originated from S1-S2 spinal nerves. femoral consisted ventral branches 5th 6th lumbar nerves 4 cats ischiatic was composed 7th (L6-L7) S1 all cadavers. thickest branch sacral plexus (the average diameter on r...

Neurological signs and computed tomographic morphology were compared in 60 patients. The primary neurological deficit was most commonly located in the sacral (n = 31) or lumbar plexus (n = 23) and was most commonly caused by a neoplasm (n = 40). In 78% of the patients it correlated with the lesions detected by computed tomography (CT). CT reliably demonstrates extraspinal mass lesions, but only...

The study of segmental innervation may be practical interest, as pathological processes involving organs and tissues can caused by damage to both peripheral individual nerves. Also, the occurrence a condition pelvic limb structures associated with various injuries, spinal cord, roots nerves sacral spine. aim experimental research was formation main plexus – n. ischiadicus, tibialis, peroneus co...

A lesion of the lumbo sacral plexus may result from an inadvertent intra-arterial injection of vasotoxic drugs into one of the gluteal arteries. Symptoms and follow-up of three cases are reported. The neuropathy is attributed to a toxic endarteritis with retrograde propagation of spasm and thrombosis. Swelling an bluish discoloration of the buttocks ("embolia cutis medicamentosa") as well as an...

Fused real-time ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be used to improve the accuracy of advanced image guided procedures. However, its use in regional anesthesia is practically nonexistent. In this randomized controlled crossover trial, we aim to explore effectiveness, procedure-related outcomes, injectate spread analyzed by MRI, and safety of ultrasound/MRI fusion versus ultraso...

Neurolymphomatosis is a rare manifestation of non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by infiltration of peripheral nerves, nerve roots, plexus and cranial nerves by malignant lymphocytes. This report presents positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT)imaging with 2-deoxy-2-(18)F-fluoro-D-glucose ((18)F-FDG) in 3 cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma with nerve infiltration, including one new...

BACKGROUND Sciatica without evidence of lumbosacral root compression is often attributed to piriformis syndrome. However, specific diagnostic tools have not been available to demonstrate sciatic nerve entrapment by the piriformis muscle. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the use of magnetic resonance (MR) neurography in identifying abnormalities of the sciatic nerve in patients with unexplained sciatica....

Pain is the main symptom of pancreatic cancer (pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, PDAC). in may be visceral, somatic or neuropathic origin. produced by tissue damage, inflammation, obstruction and infiltration. Visceral nociceptive signals caused damage to upper abdominal viscera are carried along sympathetic fibers, which travel celiac plexus nerves ganglia, found at T12-L2 vertebral levels, an...

Sciatic nerve injury and dysfunction is not an uncommon cause of lower extremity symptoms in a musculoskeletal practice. The sciatic nerve derives its nerve fibers from the L4, L5, S1, S2, and S3 nerve roots. The sciatic nerve arises from the lumbosacral plexus and is composed of two distinct trunks: the lateral (peroneal division) and the medial (tibial division). The peroneal and the tibial d...
