Accessory nerve palsies may cause considerable functional disability and they unfortunately continue to occur as a complication of surgery in and, around the posterior triangle of the neck. Here the causes of accessory nerve palsies are reviewed and the symptoms and signs arising as a consequence are summarised.

Isolated Accessory Nerve Palsy
Southern Medical Journal, 1979Accessory nerve palsy is either idiopathic or secondary to local trauma, infection, or tumor. The discomfort and disability produced as a result of trapezius weakness may be significant. The clinical features and management of accessory nerve palsy have been discussed.

Injury to the spinal accessory nerve can lead to dysfunction of the trapezius. The trapezius is a major scapular stabilizer and is composed of three functional components. It contributes to scapulothoracic rhythm by elevating, rotating, and retracting the scapula.

NERVE conduction studies are a valuable clinical tool in the localization and diagnosis of peripheral nerve lesions. Many of the cranial nerves are too deeply situated for the clinical application of this test. However, two cranial nerves can be rather easily studied: the seventh and the eleventh.

Spinal Accessory Nerve Lesions
Seminars in Neurology, 2009The spinal accessory nerve, primarily a motor nerve, innervates the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles. Proximally, lesions can occur intracranially at the skull base or just outside the jugular foramen producing ipsilateral weakness of trapezius and sternocleidomastoid muscles; or distally, in the posterior neck triangle causing trapezius ...

In 7 cases of peripheral lesion of the spinal accessory nerve 4 were produced by malignancy, two by iatrogenical resection of lymph nodes, one by an en bloc dissection of the neck for arteriovenous malformation. Incapacity following the injury is quite marked and includes weakness of the sternomastoid and trapezius muscles, as well as pain presumably ...

Traumatic Spinal Accessory Nerve Palsy
Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery, 1998Spinal accessory nerve sections due to a purely traumatic origin are very rare. The authors report a case in which a total section of the spinal accessory nerve was observed after a glass-penetrating injury. The primary lesion was undiagnosed, and only late physical examination revealed a scapula alata with a deficiency in shoulder protrusion and ...

Spinal accessory nerve cavernous malformation
Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2010We present the first reported case of a spinal accessory nerve cavernous malformation. A 54-year-old Caucasian male presented with a several-year history of progressive, vague bilateral upper and lower extremity paresthesias and pain. MRI of the spine revealed a heterogenously enhancing mass in the dorsal aspect of the spinal canal at the level of the ...

Extracranial Spinal Accessory Nerve Injury
Neurosurgery, 1993Eighty-three consecutive patients with extracranial accessory nerve injury seen over a 12-year period are reviewed. The most common etiology was iatrogenic injury to the nerve at the time of previous surgery. Such operations were usually minor in nature and often related to lymph node or benign tumor removal.

The accessory deep peroneal nerve
Journal of Neurology, 1975The innervation of the right M. extensor digitorum brevis was investigated in 52 subjects with the aid of stimulation electromyography. In 13 cases (25%) a particular branch of the superficial branch of the peroneal nerve, the accessory deep peroneal nerve, could be identified. In 1 case it alone, and in 12 cases, together with the deep peroneal nerve,
